What Is netPlanner?

netPlanner is a browser enabled database application that centrally stores your Emergency Plans and allows plan stakeholders with proper login permissions to make suggestions and updates to their section of the plan. Emergency Planners may add, edit and delete the text that is submitted for their approval. The finished plan may be saved, printed and easily distributed to plan users.

With netPlanner your emergency plans will always be up to date and accurate. No more obsolete plans when they go to the printer.
