Business Continuity
Management / Disaster Recovery Plan Information
Business Continuity Management aims to
ensure that an organisation’s critical business functions can continue
to be executed in the event of a major disruption or disaster. The
organisation is more resilient, survives the event and is able to minimize
the impacts on its business operations.
When Business Continuity Management and
Disaster Recovery Planning provisions are inadequate, leading to in the
non-availability of critical resources even for a short time, the result can
be major impacts being felt by the organisation. Examples are financial losses, loss of
control of core business processes, an inability to carry on operations,
legal and regulatory consequences, and damage to reputation and credibility.
Key
Aspects of Business Continuity Management and Disaster Recovery Planning:
Business
Impact Analysis
The Business Impact Analysis [BIA] is
the fundamental building-block for a Business Continuity Plan [BCP]. It is a
whole-of-business analysis that serves as a high-level Business Requirement Statement
for BCP. It identifies critical resources and functions and the timeframes in
which these processes must be restored following a disruption. It enables
Heads of Department and Senior Executives to approve a specific requirement
statement for the organisation. This then allows realistic consideration of
Recovery Strategies.
Recovery
Strategy Development
Recovery Strategy Development involves
identifying the most cost-effective means to ensure that the organisation can
continue to execute its critical functions following a major disruption or
disaster. As with the BIA it requires the approval of Senior Executive
Management.
Business
Continuity Plan [BCP] Development
The BCP is a written document that is
approved by the Board of Directors or Senior Executive Management. It is a
plan that contains the information and describes the procedures necessary to
enable the organisation to manage a major disruption or disaster and resume
critical business functions within the required pre-determined time.
Corporate
Governance
The ultimate responsibility for BCM
rests with the Board of Directors and Senior Executive Management. BCM is a
corporate governance issue. Key considerations are compliance with Prudential
Standards and ensuring use of sound BCM methodology.
