Storm recovery making progress

摘要

In the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, organizations large and small in the Gulf Region showed that, while you can prepare for a catastrophic storm, being able to implement your plans still represents unpredictable challenges. W. W. Grainger, one of the larger MRO distributors in the country, and Selltis, Inc., which specializes in industrial team selling software, are grateful they had plans in place as well as the staffs to imple-ment them—albeit with a bit of improvis-ing under extremely difficult conditions. When Katrina devastated the region in late August, followed by Rita just a few weeks later, Grainger was in the trenches, getting needed supplies to the impacted areas, all the while assessing damage to its 72 locations throughout the region.
