Time is not on your side
Corrosion, decay and degradation of equipment and files begins immediately after fire or water damage occurs. Its control depends on how quickly preventative steps are implemented. Corrosion control is a two-step process that begins with emergency treatment, which creates a state of preservation by drastically slowing the corrosion process. This is followed by restoration procedures where items are disassembled, decontaminated, cleaned, reassembled and tested.
Once emergency treatment has been performed, BMS CAT Electronics Consultants assess the damage by considering these questions:
- is the equipment damaged but restorable, or a total loss?
- in its damaged condition, what is the present value? Is restoration a sound economic choice?
- is the information in memory, on disk or on other type media, retrievable?
- if the equipment is restored, what about warranties and service?
Remember– time is critical. BMS CAT can help you with rapid, accurate assessments on the best options. Getting a response into action, critical time can be lost. The best solution is to have a response solution in place before disaster strikes.
