We had two power outages this week. Maybe it’s because they’re building data centers and mega-warehouses around us, but that’s a different topic for a different day.
Neither outage was particularly convenient, but both turned out to be useful.
When the power goes out in a facility, there are a number of things that need to happen. Equipment needs to be checked. Certain systems need to be reset. People need to know what to do, in what order, and who is responsible when something like this occurs.
We have documentation and SOPs for situations like this. But there’s a difference between having a procedure and knowing that procedure works.
An unexpected event has a way of exposing that difference.
