Motorola's Americas Service Division, Schaumburg, IL, is beginning its disaster recovery service, the division's first comprehensive recovery program designed to restore two-way radios communications damaged by everything from tornadoes to fires and vandalism.

The service covers most potential disasters from natural causes such as lightning, flooding and tornadoes to environmental damage caused by power surges sewer backups, water damage and fire; or disasters caused by humans ranging from burglary and vandalism to sabotage and terrorism.

A customer's specific program is based on a communications impact analysis performed by Motorola personnel. The analysis identifies the equipment, personnel and logistics necessary to bring a customer's system back on line following a disaster. The information is stored in Motorola's database, ready for access 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
