WINNIPEG – MTS Allstream employee Vito Mangialardi has received the national award for business continuity management from the Canadian Centre for Emergency Preparedness.
The Canadian Centre for Emergency Preparedness is a federally incorporated, not-for-profit organization that assists communities, governments and private business to prepare for, prevent, respond to and recover from man-made or natural disasters. Business continuity professionals identify potential threats that may impact an organization and provide a framework for implementing safeguards to protect the interests of the organization and its customers.
"For the past 15 years, Vito has been working in the field of business continuity management. He is the founding member of MTS Allstream's Business Continuity Management program," said CTO Mike Strople, in the announcement. “Reliable telecommunication services are important to all of our customers. Our business continuity and emergency management program is one important element in ensuring the performance, reliability and recoverability of our services."
The award was given to Mangialardi recently at the World Conference on Disaster Management in Toronto.
