Myriad Optima Limited focuses on the provision of contingency planning solutions for organisations, whether in the public or private sectors. To do so, the company has harnessed the power of the internet to bring the Battle Baton to solve the problems of underpinning, communicating and maintaining contingency plans, whether locally, nationally or even globally. In fact, the bigger the organisation, the bigger the problem that the Battle Baton solves.

As the company has developed the Battle Baton in-house, it asserts its rights to all the intellectual property associated with the Battle Baton whether they be copyright and / or database rights or whatsoever. However, and much more importantly from the point of view of the company’s clients, the company is able to further develop the Battle Baton not only much more easily but also as and when it wishes, having taken into account the feed-back from clients and the needs of the market.

The company’s Mission Statement is:

“To fully understand a client’s challenges so as to provide a professional solution in the field of contingency planning”

To fulfill the mission statement, the company’s prime objectives are to deliver a first class service with UK based customer support that is second to none by listening to its customers and seeking to meet their needs and wishes. However, the company does not act as Business Continuity Consultants as such.

Whilst the company understands the many and varied challenges that their clients face, they do not profess to provide “all the answers to everything”. However, the company has developed a most powerful, flexible, versatile and supportive product, the Battle Baton. It is an application that everyone involved in continuity / contingency planning should seriously consider as the No. 1 item on their wish list and it does not even matter whether someone is just about to take their first steps in the development of their plans or whether the plans have already attained a certain maturity.

Whilst the company provides an economic solution to the needs of those involved in continuity / contingency planning through the Battle Baton, the company appreciates that its clients have differing needs. So, having supplied the Battle Baton, there are 3 different service levels provided by the company from which a client may choose:-

• Standard self-managed service, which includes technical support
• Partly managed service
• Fully managed service

The company always identifies how best to approach matters so as to ensure that the resilience of a client’s contingency plans is strengthened and improved while at the same time ensuring that their implementation is simple, cost effective and virtually paperless.

Understandably, organisations demand value for money and personal service. Operating from offices in Surrey and Dorset, the company eases the route to economic, effective and successful contingency planning management by reducing the time-lag of related tasks and ongoing administration.

The company’s highly experienced management team and staff, who have many years of experience, know that the company’s success ultimately relies on that of its clients. That is why the company specifically designed the Battle Baton: it makes a client’s plans work to their full potential by underpinning them and improving communications, and, at a time, when results really do matter.
