Contact Us Now for Personalized Guidance! [Schedule a Free Consultation](https://mha-it.com/contact) MHA Consulting, in collaboration with Kroll, will participate in upcoming educational programming hosted by the Public Utilities Risk Management Association (PURMA), where representatives from MHA Consulting will join utility leaders and risk professionals to discuss business continuity for utilities. The session will address the practical work required to build and maintain mature business continuity capabilities within public utilities and utility cooperatives. Topics will include business continuity program maturity, operational resilience, disaster recovery, crisis management, risk, and organizational preparedness. [PURMA](https://purma.org/) is a not-for-profit association focused on providing risk management services, insurance solutions, education, and training to publicly owned utilities and utility cooperatives in the Northeast. Its membership includes organizations providing electric, gas, water, telecommunications, cable, and sewer services. PURMA also provides education and training opportunities to members both individually and through group programming. For utility organizations, business continuity requires coordination across operations, technology, leadership, emergency response, and recovery teams. Service disruptions can create consequences well beyond the organization itself, making it important for continuity programs to clearly define priorities, recovery capabilities, decision-making responsibilities, and how different response functions work together. The session will draw on practical business continuity experience to help attendees examine where their programs stand today and what stronger preparedness looks like in practice. The discussion will explore how organizations can move beyond maintaining plans toward building continuity capabilities that are governed, exercised, reviewed, and improved over time. > “Utilities have a responsibility to keep essential services available to the communities they serve, and that makes business continuity a very practical leadership issue,” said Michael Herrera, CEO of MHA Consulting. > > “The goal is not simply to have plans on the shelf. Leaders need to understand their critical operations, know where recovery gaps exist, and have confidence that their teams can make good decisions when something goes wrong. We look forward to sharing what we have learned and having that conversation with PURMA members.”   The participation aligns closely with PURMA's emphasis on risk management education and its role as a resource for publicly owned utilities and cooperatives. PURMA's annual meetings provide members with opportunities to receive organizational updates, participate in educational sessions, and connect with service providers and other utility professionals. For MHA Consulting and Kroll, the PURMA program provides an opportunity to bring business continuity into the broader risk conversation facing utility leaders. The focus will remain practical: understanding where programs need to mature, connecting continuity with disaster recovery and crisis management, and helping leaders identify the preparedness work that deserves attention before a disruption tests it. --- ## Start building a stronger future ##### Navigate uncertainty with an expert - schedule your free consultation with our CEO, Michael Herrera.
