Act Y2K Small Business Workbook: A Guide to You and Your Orginization

There are three objectives of the Act Y2K Small Business Workbook. The first objective is to provide information to help understand the Year 2000 problem. This includes what it is, how it happened, and some of the potential consequences. The second objective is to help organizations develop a Y2K team. This includes what leadership qualities to consider when selecting a leader, how to structure the team and the accountabilities for each level. The third objective is to guide organizations through an inventory assessment to indentify the "critcal systems" to be repaired or replaced. Act Y2K helps organizations meet these objectives by using a systematic, step by step approach that includes: awareness, leadership, communication, assessment, risk analysis, testing, repair or replace and contingency planning. The tools included are; sample letters to banks, suppliers, customers and employees, critical systems list, internet addresses for compliance testing, decision making model, staffing tips, recruiting outline and a home survival guide. The home survival guide includes: home supply kit information, water treatment information, expected shelf life for 45 common foods, telephone numbers for vital documents for all 50 states and more!
