Emergency response agreements with ACR
ACR’s Emergency Response Agreement (ERA) helps give facility directors, engineers & custodians, risk managers and school business officials the peace of mind they need when faced with an emergency event at their institutions. This valuable tool serves as the central source of all the most pertinent information needed for a quick recovery. Knee deep in a flood or fire event is not the best time to be screening restoration contractors. Time is money.
We strive to promote the highest likelihood of a successful outcome and recovery to operational continuity by creating emergency plans that include specific data that is critical at the time of an inevitable loss, including key internal & external emergency contacts, utility/system location information, and the building’s structural details.
An ERA with ACR will give you:
Priority response in an emergency or catastrophic event
Service pricing set in advance of emergency response
An established, pre-qualified contractor who will prioritize your company’s needs
Resources you need to handle any disaster or event that may interrupt business operations
Emergency responders who know you and your business
A restoration partner that is accustomed to insurance pricing and insurance program requirements
An ERA serves as the central source
of all the most useful and pertinent information for recovery.
