Business Continuity Plan

Public Information and Emergency Response (PIER)
The University of Houston-Victoria utilizes the Public Information and Emergency Response (PIER) System to manage critical communication during an emergency event. PIER is an on-demand communication management web-application. The PIER system is designed for external and internal communication applications where speed, efficiency, and direct communication are important. PIER puts all critical tools needed by communicators into a single, easy-to-use communication platform. Push, pull and interactive communication are all managed in a highly efficient and tightly integrated manner. Communicators and an extended team can work together from anywhere at any time to fully complete and manage a wide range of critical communication tasks.

The University of Houston-Victoria Emergency Information Web site is hosted on the PIER system and is accessible at http://www.uhvemergency.info
