Implement a Business Resumption Plan
This plan is the basis of any Business Continuity Plan; entails
establishing a team that will be responsible for planning and
documenting what needs to be done when a disaster occurs (dealing
with Recovery Analysis, Task Assignments, Risk Analysis, requirements
needed (such as hardware, software) for recovery, Emergency
Procedures, etc.).
Occupant Emergency
If a disaster occurs where employees need to evacuate the office
building, it’s critical to have a safe route out of the building (fire drills) as
well as a back up plan to guide staff to another location to continue
operations (perhaps employees can work from home (remote working) or
at an empty office space that can be rented for a short duration of time
until the building is safe to enter).
Incident Management
Disaster Recovery has to do with recovering the company’s IT systems
after a disaster. The plan should consist of identifying your critical
systems, their possible threats and RTOs/RPOs. Next, you should identify
the response strategy and action steps in order to recover all the
business data. A Business Continuity Solution – like QBR - should be
implemented and tested to know how it will work and to ensure it is
functioning properly.
05 Disaster Recovery
This plan is required in order to prevent future crises from re-occurring.
Of course, we cannot prevent natural disasters – but we can try our best
to correct hazards that are associated to human errors, software or
hardware failures, etc.
A Disaster Recovery System does not ensure 100% recoverability unless
it is TESTED on a regular basis.
92% of companies do NOT have a Disaster Recovery
Plan
tested
A complete Business Continuity plan allows you to allocate the necessary
financial & human resources to continue business operations in case of a
disaster. Most companies cannot survive with a long downtime which is
why the right plans and action steps need to be documented and properly
followed when the time comes and the best solution (QBR) needs to be
implemented and tested.
