"WolfPAC developed the Business Continuity Planning module to minimize the continuing challenges and escalating costs that come with creating and managing a business continuity plan that remains relevant with the changing business and regulatory environment," said Michael Cohn, director of WolfPAC Solutions Group. "These are powerful yet easy to use tools that ensure that the most up-to-date and efficient response plan is in place.
