Ford Infrastructure is one of the major power businesses that employ subsurface imaging technology in their organization to increase operational efficiencies and provide the best results. Because contingencies are a part of today's business environment, this company implements all safety mechanisms that aid in the protection of corporate systems. They created a backup strategy for the company which allows employees to maintain business activities for as long as necessary while dealing with industry dangers and challenges.  (Meshal, 2016)

Users perform an important part in the backup plan; end-customers participate in the creation of contingencies and create the appropriate safety methods to mitigate the consequences of uncertainty and danger. The end consumer is the individual in charge of overseeing the whole backup plan and designing an appropriate solution to achieve the company goals. They employ all of the strategies and commercial ways to promote the institution's important areas. A backup plan is the greatest plan of activity that organizations choose in order to handle swiftly corporate crises and unforeseen occurrences such as catastrophes. (Philips, 2005)

Including the numerous benefits of incorporating users in business continuity, there are a few drawbacks and other difficulties. End users created software and programs for backup preparations, however, they frequently refuse to react to catastrophes and unexpected economic occurrences. But on the other side, a plan of action is frequently considered as the organization's effectiveness alternatives and is kept as plan B. In such situations, end users are less interested in the commercial conversation, which has a significant effect on the firm's ultimate goal. Users take on less administrative duty in the backup plan for keeping the entire software running. Encryption as well as other controls may be insufficient to protect the organization's systems amid unforeseen trade shows. (Meshal, 2016)
