"Bernard Jones did superb work creating a process structure to ensure the continuity of business operations in the face of emergency events. He work effectively to disabuse business leaders and process owners of the mistaken notions that it is either "an IT problem" or disaster recovery by another name. The preparedness and management processes he created was tested almost immediately after it came online, when a hurricane threatened Florida, and worked as designed. No one "sees" emergency management when it's done right (because nothing breaks), but everyone complains about when it is done wrong. It needs people who can foresee problems before they are crises, and provide the leadership needed to keep the business running if/when they occur. People, in short, just like Bernie. I feel privileged to have worked with him."

"Bernard was invaluable to the organization in a governance role with respect to business continuity planning. He has formidable skills in identifying gaps and working to engineer remediation processes. I heartily endorse him and look forward to his continued success."
