If you have a warehouse with products worth 200,000 euros and it starts to fill with water, you have a problem. This is what arose last Friday.
That day most people were present and only one person was working remotely. That is why we were quickly able to find a plumbing company that took care of the problem. The downside was that that day passed and no one was able to work. On Saturday this brought me to this.
An emergency plan for fire floods
We were not prepared for this type of event. We were lucky that the water did not come out too quickly, which gave us room to think and react. We would have needed this:
A written plan with contacts and a step-by-step of how to act.
Definition of responsibilities of who has to do what.
We have a person who takes care of administrative matters. This person contacted the plumbing companies. Then there were two to three people whatsapp data who were in continuous contact with the company when they arrived at our site.
Next time we need to do it this way
The administration person takes charge of communicating and being present with the plumbing company. He communicates with the rest of the team when needed.
The rest of the team works.
What I have learned
We have lost a whole day of work. It ยังไง ถึง เอาชนะ การปะทะกัน ค่านิยม ภายใน เอ การทำงานร่วมกัน – บทความ would not have been necessary. It has shown me that we still do not have sufficiently solid processes to move forward.
Emergencies like the one on Friday take our focus off the daily tasks that must be done no matter what. It is clear that this was an emergency and that action had to be taken, but there may be similar situations that are less serious and have similar effects.
I always say it
We have to work on the important tasks despite aub directory having emergencies. This Friday the progress has been zero and not only for one person but for an entire team. The damage has been much greater than just the bill that the plumbing company is going to give us.
We have to create a system that ensures that we work day after day on the important things: making shipments, optimizing products, controlling inventory, responding to customers, etc.
We failed on Friday. It won’t happen again.
