Disaster Recovery
The primary objective of the FPS GOLD® Disaster Recovery System is to ensure the continued operation of your business by providing the ability to successfully recover all functions in the event of a disaster. Our annually updated Contingency Plan is one of the most advanced and reliable in the nation, implementing unparalleled strategies to help you continue business as usual in the event of an emergency.
At FPS GOLD, we limit the potential for data loss by creating magnetic tapes of all client data files every business day, Monday through Saturday. These tapes are then transported to a secure granite vault in the mountains east of Salt Lake City. In addition, our disaster recovery contract with IBM guarantees that everything from the mainframe computer to the communications equipment, phone lines, and printers will be up and configured to our specifications within 24 hours of declaring a disaster.
Each year, FPS GOLD conducts a disaster recovery test at one of the IBM host sites, proceeding as if our Provo facility were inoperable. We personally take the backup tapes from the vault to the IBM facility to restore our entire computer and communications system. As one of our clients, you'll be given the opportunity to test on the IBM equipment and be sure you're familiar with the Contingency Plan. Though you may never face the reality of a disaster, our Disaster Recovery System ensures your peace of mind. |
