ABSTRACT STRATEGIC CONTINGENCY PLANNING By Karen Scott-Martinet Fall 2006 The objective of this study was to develop a strategic contingency planning model to be used to fully incorporate emergency management and business continuity into organization structures. (For the purpose of this study, Emergency Management and Business Continuity were collectively referred to as “contingency planning.”) Presently, contingency planning is mainly done on an operational or tactical level. Current thinking suggests that contingency planning should be an active part of organizations’ overall strategic planning processes as well. Organizations will ultimately be better prepared for future disasters and crises. STRATEGIC CONTINGENCY PLANNING A THESIS Presented to the Professional Studies Department California State University, Long Beach In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Emergency Services Administration By Karen Scott-Martinet B.A., 1994, University of Hawaii, West Oahu Fall 2006  Copyright 2006 Karen Scott-Martinet ALL RIGHTS RESERVED  TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER 1.
