Case Study: When the Pick-Lists Failed
The "Hyperion Tabletop": A Simple Way to Start If your organization isn't ready to undertake a full resilience review, we encourage you to run one simple exercise before the end of the month. It costs nothing, requires no outside help, and will tell you more about your real vulnerabilities than most formal assessments. Get the right people in a room: IT leadership, operations, plant management. Give them one constraint: the primary network is completely inaccessible and will remain so for the next six hours. Then present three questions and listen carefully to the responses. Just listen. Access: Do we have the vendor phone numbers written down physically? Priorities: Does IT know that "Line 4" is more important than "Accounting" right now? Workarounds: Does the shift lead know how to run the plant without the ERP? The places where people go quiet, look at each other, or start to argue…. those are your gaps. They are not hypothetical risks. They are real ones—specific to your building, your team, your operation. The good news is they're all fixable. The only question is whether you find them in a conference room on a Tuesday, or at 2:00 AM when it actually matters. Talk to Hyperion about building a plan your plant floor can actually use when it counts.
