When a gas explosion left one person dead, 25 injured and destroyed or damaged 40 homes within three communities in the North Andover, Massachusetts, area last September, Chris Nesman, CFM, was receiving “second by second” updates about the situation.
Nesman, who is Senior Manager, Facilities Technical Operations for EMD Serono, was sitting in EMD Serono’s new Security Operations Center (SOC), and he had access to information that helped the EMD Serono security team to assess any possible disruptions to the company’s facilities within close proximity to the situation, in addition to employees who lived in those communities.
