Winshuttle Community,
We would like to assure our customers that Winshuttle is working hard to minimize business disruptions, as COVID-19 becomes more prevalent in our global community. We do not expect any disruption in our services and have taken action to provide the highest level of support and to protect our clients, our employees and their families. All Winshuttle employees are equipped for working remotely. Each employee has a company issued laptop and utilize multiple cloud-based communication and productivity services to ensure uninterrupted operations. For internal access, we have redundant global VPN access points for ongoing access to these resources.
In the event the situation worsens as it relates to coronavirus, we have robust escalation communication and business continuity plans in place, which are frequently tested. We have tested our employees' ability to work from home without disruption, and our management team is closely monitoring our plans.
More specifically, our customer support hours have not been impacted at this time and our teams are fully staffed. As many of you know, over the past three years we have consolidated our geographic customer support teams, processes and systems to prepare for situations where one region would be off line due to unforeseen impacts. Today our support team is based in three separate geographies: Seattle WA, USA; London, UK and Chandigarh, India. All three locations leverage the same cloud based systems for telephony and case management systems with common processes and procedures. Consequently, if any specific individual is unable to work due to illness, the other team members will have access to continue to the case and work on the issue(s) with limited disruption. Our support team members have transitioned to remote work environments over the past couple of weeks and we believe we are well positioned to provide the best support possible during these difficult times.
This is a challenging time as conditions are rapidly evolving. We are confident in our ability to serve you throughout so that you can rely on us during this period of uncertainty. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you would like additional information about the steps we are taking to support our clients and employees.
Please direct any specific questions or concerns to me at brian.berg@winshuttle.com.
Thank you for your continued support and please stay safe.
