When severe thunderstorms and tornados struck Kokomo, Indiana in November 2013, over 50 residences were destroyed, many more damaged and dozens of businesses displaced. For three of those businesses affected, The Realtors Association of Central Indiana, The Hardie Group, CRM Properties, Josh Shannonhouse, and Sequel Motion–now Business System Solutions–were able to provide IT and telephone disaster recovery to get them back up and running.
Once the coast was clear, the staff of Sequel Motion jumped into action and worked to secure office space and computers for these companies. Temporary office space was donated by the Greater Kokomo Economic Development Alliance at the Inventrek Technology Park while Sequel Motion set up computers and Internet access for the three companies.
Sequel Motion and Level365 worked together to roll out a voice disaster recovery solution. Level365 donated the use of phones and set-up a Voice365 Cloud solution to duplicate their premised based phone systems that were knocked out of service by the severe weather. By simply forwarding their existing phone number to phone numbers provided by Level365, service was restored.
