CONTINUITY PLANNING
Facts are facts. Business continuity planning is essential for any organization. A majority of companies who suffer a disaster or major operational failure – without an established and tested continuity plan – are out of business within one year. The digital and physical threats facing businesses today continue to increase. Intentional acts, natural disasters, or supply-chain failures interrupt your organization, and defining the recovery processes to resume critical business operations is what will keep your operations moving.
Our business continuity planning services will help you do just that. We go above and beyond industry standards to ensure your plans are customized to meet your needs.
ANALYZING THE IMPACT
The first step is conducting a business impact analysis (BIA) with you. This analysis will determine and evaluate the potential effects of an interruption to your critical operations.
The research predicts the physical and financial consequences of a disruption and reveals potential vulnerabilities.
DEVELOPING THE PLAN
Following the BIA, we will use the data to develop your business continuity plan (BCP). This plan will provide the policy and guidance to ensure your organization can respond effectively to disruption and restore your critical operations as quickly as possible.
OBJECTIVES
The primary objectives of this plan are to identify advanced arrangements and procedures that will enable your organization to:
- Respond quickly
- Ensure continuation of critical functions
- Protect essential resources
- Minimize negative effects
DISASTER RECOVERY PLANNING
What happens when your IT systems stop working? Developed in conjunction with a BCP, an effective Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) will identify your specific network system requirements and recovery protocols to minimize interruption time.
Whether transmitting through internal network servers, cloud services, electronic data interchanges (EDI), or voice-over-internet protocol (VOIP) systems, data and communications are critical to your business’s continued operations. The impact of data loss or corruption from hardware failure, human error, intrusion, or viruses could be substantial.
