3 February, 6.30-7.30pm
CIOB past president Chris Soffe will discuss the reconstruction of the iconic grandstand at Daytona International Raceway in Florida. The owner’s challenge was to deliver this 101,000-seat facility by an immovable deadline for the 2015 Daytona 500 race. Construction had to take place through two hurricane seasons, and allow for two reduced-capacity Daytona 500s and other race meets to take place without interruption. The success was in the pre-planning, the design, the risk allocation and of course a fabulously committed project team.

Business Continuity Planning
17 February, 12-1pm
If you have never been involved in creating a business continuity plan (BCP), this will give you an insight to the challenges, as well as the commonsense approach. Also it will help you to be better prepared in the unlikely event of a disaster recovery invocation.
The event will answer questions you may have about BCPs, such as:
- Can we operate business without one?
- Does it have to be complex?
- What is the difference between a BCP and Disaster Recovery Plan?
- Is it costly to create one?
- Do I need to be an expert to create one
- What do we need to include in my BCP?
- Have we implemented a BCP on covid-19 without knowing? If so, what lessons have we learned?
- What needs to be included in a BCP?
- Is it all about IT systems or are there more considerations?
- If we have multiple sites, can we create a template that fits all?
- Do we have to test our BCP and if so, what is involved?
- Which external agencies need to know that we have a proven and tested BCP?
