ting companies deal with their own
specific suppliers. To provide double
security against possible Year 2000
risks, Heineken is developing contin
gency plans that describe what to do
when things unexpectedly go wrong
despite all effort.
In the opinion of Heineken, the
flexibility needed in these possible
crisis situations can only be obtained
by thorough preparation involving
specialists and top management in
close co-operation. Therefore,
Heineken's management is now
together with specialists, designing
their crisis management organisa
tion in order to be fully prepared for
Year 2000. The tremendous effort
that Heineken spends on fighting the
Year 2000 will ensure that everybody
will be able to bring a toast to the
Millennium with a Heineken beer!
