You will learn what to look for and key questions to ask vendors who will be supporting your firm in the event of a work stoppage. Because emergency services related to strikes are not acquired regularly, you can find yourself making difficult decisions with out a great deal of knowledge and back ground on the services required, response capabilities and necessary process as well as evidence collection required to be successful.
