It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that we move
forward in this new alliance. The past few months have included
numerous discussions as to how we can expand our industry through
working together. During the 1st and 2nd quarters of this year,
we have been busy laying the groundwork. Get ready for some exciting
new developments in 3rd and 4th quarters of 2003. Want to know more?
Send me an email and we'll be sure that you are one of the first

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. February 19, 2003
The three continuity publications, Disaster Recovery
Journal, Contingency Planning & Management and Disaster Resource
GUIDE announce the formation of an
alliance for the purpose of expanding the continuity marketplace.
In this complex and ever-changing arena, this alliance will offer
businesses and governments throughout the world access to the most
current and relevant information and technologies.
Though each publication will continue to grow in their
unique market niches, this major cooperative thrust will accelerate
worldwide business continuity. The inaugural project will be the
creation of an information portal on the World Wide Web to provide
practitioners with a wealth of resources, services and information.
The portal will be achieved by linking all three publication websites,
www.contingencyplanning.com,
www.drj.com, and
www.disaster-resource.com.
By linking the three sites, business continuity professionals
will be able to quickly and easily find information on numerous
subjects. Articles from each publication, as well as news briefs,
surveys and other listings, will be easily accessed from any of
the sites.
The partnership will allow the three publications
to work on an unlimited number and type of projects that will enhance
and further develop the opportunities available to contingency planners
throughout the world.
The annual Disaster Resource GUIDE
effectively consolidates and powerfully communicates thousands of
resources for business continuity and emergency/crisis management
used by corporations and government agencies in the US and throughout
the globe. The print and online GUIDE,
organized in six content categories, provides a "big picture" overview
for practitioners as well as senior management.
The Contingency Planning & Management Group, which
includes Contingency Planning & Management magazine (CPM), ContingencyPlanning.com
and the CPM Business Continuity Conference and Expo, is the resource
for management, strategies, technology, products, and services that
support enterprise-wide Business Continuity. CPM's content enables
executive-level business leaders to recognize the mission critical
aspects of the continuity of operations.
Disaster Recovery Journal is a quarterly publication
focused on all aspects of business continuity and enterprise wide
planning. DRJ, an industry pioneer, began publishing in 1987. Through
its widespread readership and two annual conferences, the DRJ has
become a catalyst and a leader in the business continuity industry.
