Having a working Sump Pump during a rain storm, during a flood, can be your savior.
A Sump Pump is a hole in your basement that has a pump in it, when the water fills up the hole to a certain level, the pump turns on and starts pumping that water out of your house.
Your house is saved.
When there is no water in the hole, the pump never runs. Depending on where you live, that could mean that your sump pump runs 5% of the time or less.
But when you need it, it is there, dutifully doing what is required, getting you out of the trouble, and quite literally, saving the day.
Then it goes back to being dormant.
Does your organization have a Sump Pump?
Is it a person or a process?
If you don’t have one, have you seen the times when you needed one?
Maybe now is the time to sit down with your team and build one for the next time a flood occurs, because during the flood, no one has time to find or build one.
