Power Outage Contingency Plan (POCP)
Prepare and protect your business from unexpected power outages.
Is Your Facility Prepared for a Power Outage?
When a power outage strikes, the ability to respond quickly and effectively is critical—especially for facilities where life safety is a priority. Hospitals, nursing homes, manufacturing plants, pharmaceutical companies, and office buildings cannot afford to be caught unprepared. A Power Outage Contingency Plan (POCP) ensures you’re ready to maintain operations, protect critical systems, and safeguard the people in your building.
If your facility lacks permanent emergency systems, Generator Rental and ATS Rental options may be the solution for keeping operations running smoothly during an outage. We understand that no two facilities are alike. That’s why we offer customized POCP solutions tailored to your specific needs, whether you already have emergency equipment or need a plan from scratch. Whether your plan involves a permanent installation or Generator Rental services, we’ve got you covered.
For Facilities With Existing Generators and Transfer Switches:
We begin with a comprehensive walkthrough to locate your emergency generators and transfer switches.
During this evaluation, we’ll assess how your current setup functions when the power goes out.
We’ll gain a clear understanding of your existing protocols, identifying gaps that could leave your facility vulnerable in an outage.
Based on our findings, we’ll create a tailored plan that addresses your primary concerns, ensuring seamless power restoration during an outage.
We’ll map out an ideal location for a Generator Rental or portable generator, specifying parking arrangements, connection points, and the necessary cabling and materials to get your facility back online.
We’ll deliver a detailed contingency plan in a binder that stays onsite, containing all the critical steps, materials, and contacts needed for immediate action in an emergency.
For Facilities Without Emergency Generators or ATS:
Our experts will perform an in-depth walkthrough of your facility with your designated point of contact. It’s important to have an electrician onsite to help identify critical systems and power requirements.
Based on your facility’s needs, we’ll determine the equipment required to power essential systems and ensure continuity of operations during a power outage. For temporary solutions, we may recommend ATS Rental and Generator Rental to meet your power demands.
We’ll document where emergency power equipment should be delivered and stationed, and specify where electricians will make the necessary tie-ins for power distribution.
Just like with existing systems, we’ll provide a thorough plan that outlines every step, ensuring your facility is prepared for any outage. You’ll receive a copy of this plan to keep on hand, ready for immediate action.
Why You Need a Power Outage Contingency Plan (POCP)
A power outage is an unpredictable event, but the chaos that follows doesn’t have to be. Most facilities are left scrambling when the lights go out—struggling to restore power while dealing with the emergency at hand. With a POCP in place, you eliminate the guesswork, reduce downtime, and ensure that power is restored as quickly as possible.
Whether you’re looking for Generator Rental or planning for permanent systems, having a contingency plan is essential to ensure smooth recovery during an outage.
