abstract = {Because 89% of businesses in Thailand are Small and Medium Enterprises (SME), how well those businesses are doing impacts to overall country's GDP highly. The disaster events in Thailand had shown that SME in Thailand had yet been prepared for disaster well enough. Especially, the great flood in 2011 suggested that the SMEs were affected highly and recovered difficulty. With the fact that the number of new startups in Thailand is increasing rapidly, it is very important that the SME should be able to make the assessment and understand their risk. This study presents the idea of knowledge implementation in disaster management for Thai SME startups both from business management integrated with an engineering point of view. The disaster management is highly important topic for supporting Thailand's economic development with easy-to-use analysis tools with engineering data for analysis that had yet been introduced in Thailand. To reduce lost and prevent development obstacles, this study suggests SME startups to conduct business with cautions for unexpected disasters+6. Business Risk Assessment (BRA) system is the useful tool that suggests startups what should be considered and how much should be considered and invested in preventing lost due to disaster. It is 3 times cheaper to prepare than to recover. This study explains the development stages of BRA system, which is the internet-based-platform for risk assessment for young SME in Thailand. It suggests SME startup for disaster preparation by determines the risks, vulnerability, and analyzes the suitable preparation suggestion for before, during, and after the disaster. This study conducts under the goal to minimum risk management investment of resources for lost prevention and fast recovery for the SME startups. With the fast and easy to access platform, by inputting business's information, the system will output risk score and suggest the possible disaster preparation for SME startups. The result from this tool can be used for Business Continuity Plan (BCP) to result the necessary measures for high-prioritized business activity. BCP standard and suggestion for implementation is available in Thailand, but the practical execution is still under limitations. © 2016 CURRAN-CONFERENCE. All rights reserved.},

abstract = {In this research on disaster warning systems, the Philippines was selected to be a case study. The Philippines was hit by a particularly bad storm in 2013 Super Typhoon Haiyan. Here we focused on warning system process management from an enterprise engineering perspective. In understanding warning systems, it is necessary to know the essence of overall processes. The objective of this qualitative study is to determine the system’s essential components by using the Design and Engineering Methodology for Organizations (DEMO). This involves both assigning responsibility levels and utilizing both traditional means such as broadcast vehicles with speakers and radios and newer means such as Internet channels to disseminate warning information. The findings provide a simple model explaining the disaster-related organization and communication structure. They also contribute a practical aspect in the form of suggestions to planners and decision makers that may assist them in preparing mitigation plans for projected natural disasters. © 2015, Fuji Technology Press.

abstract = {A disaster early warning system is an important tool to prevent a large number of human casualties from natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis. In Thailand, an early disaster warning system has been established as a part of the reconstruction process after the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami. This chapter focuses on the establishment, development and management process of this early warning system, with particular emphasis on tsunami hazards. This study considers face-to-face interviews with executive officers from the National Disaster Warning Center (NDWC) and the Seismological Bureau of the Thai Meteorological Department (TMD). Moreover, observations of a warning drill conducted in September 2013 in Bangkok, Thailand are also considered. Relevant issues and findings are discussed while providing suggestions for the potential development of early warning systems of a similar nature in other developing countries. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.},

abstract = {A number of buildings were damaged by the 2011 Great East Japan tsunami in the Tohoku area. The research objective is to determine the significant predictor variables of the level of building damage. This paper used detailed data on damaged buildings in Kesennuma City, Japan, collected by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT). The tested explanatory parameters included the inundation depth, number of floors, volume of the building, debris flow, structural material, and function of the building. Through multinomial logistic regression, the results found that the number of floors was significantly associated with the damage level; the inundation depth, structural material (reinforced concrete and masonry), and function of the building (commercial facility, transportation/storage facility, and public facility) were partially associated with the damage level. This study can contribute to academic research by assessing the contribution of different variables to observed damage data by applying statistical analysis, as well as the practical contribution of providing an examination of the predominant factors driving tsunami damage to buildings. © 2015, Chulalongkorn University 1.

abstract = {The Tohoku Regional Bureau (TRB) of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) performed various actions in response to the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. The total disaster recovery and reconstruction period is expected to last for 10 years, of which the first five years are regarded as the concentrated reconstruction period. As of 2013, a majority of the mega projects that involved restoration actions have been completed, which indicates a more effective rate of completion compared with the MLIT projects performed in normal non-disaster situations. This short article explains the management process of the recovery and reconstruction utilized by the TRB—an inter-organizational process—from a business process management (BPM) perspective and creates a simple organization construction diagram of the entire process. The study focused on the transactions and actor roles to identify their strengths. The findings indicate the utilization of different operational procedures in some parts of the process, the importance of liaison role, as well as some obstacles. The lessons learned from this analysis can assist managers and researchers in designing and managing restoration processes for future disasters. © 2015, The Author(s).},
