BCP Disclosure

Business Continuity Plan

Atlantic Container Line (ACL) is committed to providing continuity to its customers and vendors during a disruption to our business. ACL has developed Business Continuity Plans (BCP) in accordance with Homeland Security’s PS-PREP program to ensure continuity within the private sector. While it is not possible to predict the impact of a disaster or disruption, ACL has taken action to protect its customers and vendors.

Objective: To reduce the consequences of disruption to an acceptable level through execution of pre-established continuity and recovery procedures and to resume our normal operations as soon as possible in the event of a disruption to our business.

Definition of a disaster or disruption: A disaster or disruption is any event in which key functions are not able to be performed due to the unavailability of infrastructure or staff.

• ACL has developed BCPs and have tested them against disruptions lasting from 8 hours to an excess of 6 months.
• ACL has replaced all desktop PC’s with laptops and 100% of staff is fully able to perform their functions from remote locations with no degradation of service.
• ACL has partnered with various vendors to ensure expedited restoration to the original to minimize the effects of the disruption.
• ACL BCPs are reviewed, tested and updated on a periodic basis to maintain their usefulness and practicality.

Atlantic Container Line appreciates the partnerships it enjoys with its customers and vendors. We hope our preparedness will help ensure continuity for our business partners.
