Our Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Planning Process
Our approach is based on understanding your business and identifying the threats that may impact the ongoing continuity of your business and working closely with you to develop the required plans and capabilities to recover and continue your business. These capabilities extend from purely business focused continuity planning to IT centric planning services, with IT and information being a key dependency to most businesses.
Our services provide value to our customers in the following areas and approaches:
- Development of overarching Business Continuity Management frameworks, policies and templates
- Business focused Business Impact Assessment (BIA) to identify critical business processes and recovery priorities
- Identify business process dependencies, such as people, facilities, IT services and information
- Analysis of the current capabilities to meet recovery expectations and threat/risk assessment, recommendations and roadmap to improve capabilities
- Develop the strategies and plans (BCP’s) to respond and recover from a business disruption
- Develop IT focused Disaster Recovery Plans and playbooks
- Define the Communications strategies and processes
- Testing and training of plans and processes through scenario testing to ensure that they are effective and able to be executed in a real-world scenario.
Our approach is aligned with industry standards, such as ISO 22301 Security and resilience, yet flexible to provide high-value and pragmatic outcomes for our clients.
It’s important to note that developing comprehensive business continuity and disaster recovery plans is not just about technology – we ensure there is an appropriate focus on the people and process aspects of business continuity, with important aspects such as developing a communications strategy and ensuring appropriate service level arrangements with key external parties.
