InterSys Business Continuity Planning
Continuity of supply is critical -
robust plans could save your business.
Are you prepared should
the unthinkable occur? Being prepared doesn't mean having a plan
that gathers dust on your shelf, it means having responsible
individuals who are trained and ready to respond to any scenario
that may escalate into a crisis.
People don't have much time to think in a crisis - they prefer to
act. Consequently, all the thinking should be done in advance. Most
importantly, you need to understand your critical business processes
in order to determine which have priority and therefore need to be
recovered first.
The planning process should be closely linked to risk assessments
performed as part of your approach to Enterprise
Risk Management. This will enable you identify the critical
threats that you may have to respond to.
Training of the business continuity team and testing the plan is
essential. Intersys Risk can help you to design realistic scenarios to
put your team in a crisis situation to determine how your plan will
work under pressure.
