![From 30 Minutes to 30 Seconds: How to Slash Your Crisis Response Time [Abstract] Many emergency response teams run full-scale exercises only every three months or once a year. The challenge? This frequency may not be enough to drive improvement. We advise additional ways to exercise, such as focused spot drills. Frequent, rapid drills that focus on critical phases of a crisis have a huge impact. Think of your team activation time. Using spot drills and preparation, you can improve this dramatically. [Title] From 30 Minutes to 30 Seconds: The Shift You Need Some organizations have transformed their response time from over 30 minutes to under 30 seconds. They have done so by focussing on activation time, by using the smart and faster approach and by training and conducting spot drills. Here are some tips: Unpredictable Drills – Testing response plans at random times forces teams to be ready at all times. No one gets to “prepare” for a drill because real crises don’t give warnings. One-Tap Team Activation / Response – Forget the mess of emails, calls, and chat groups. A crisis team should be mobilized instantly with a single action. We recommend using a critical event management solution like RAYVN for this. Live Situational Awareness – No more waiting for updates. Real-time visibility ensures that every decision-maker is on the same page, immediately. Instant Task Assignments – Instead of wasting time discussing who does what, tasks should be automatically assigned and tracked to ensure action happens immediately. Why This Matters Beyond Crisis Response This isn’t just about speed—it’s about accountability and continuous improvement. By tracking response times, organizations can refine processes, meet ISO compliance standards, and integrate crisis preparedness into their everyday operations without disrupting the core business. Significant improvements to team response / activation time can be made by looking at: Instant team mobilization – One tap activates your crisis response. Full visibility – Everyone gets the latest updates in real time. Automated task management – Clear assignments, tracked progress, no delays. Built-in reporting – Every action logged for review, compliance, and training. Quick Tip: Run Micro-Drills for incremental improvements Test response times with short, unannounced drills. These take almost no time from their daily work but ensure they can act fast when it truly matters. They won’t replace your full-scale exercises, but will give you additional insights.
