Business Continuity
Plan / Disaster Recovery Plan
A Business Continuity Plan / Disaster
Recovery Plan 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 Plan / Disaster
Recovery Plan 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.
Business
Continuity Plan / Disaster Recovery Plan – Key Components
Business
Impact Analysis
The Business Impact Analysis [BIA] is
the fundamental building-block for a Business Continuity Plan / Disaster
Recovery Plan. It is a whole-of-business analysis that serves as a high-level
Business Requirement Statement for the organisation. It identifies critical
resources and functions and the timeframes in which these 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 Business Recovery Strategies.
Business
Recovery Strategy Development
Business 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 / Disaster Recovery Plan Development
The BCP/DRP is a written document that
is approved by the Board of Directors and/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 the
Business Continuity Plan / Disaster Recovery Plan rests with the Board of
Directors and/or Senior Executive Management. Business Continuity Management
is a Corporate Governance issue. In some industry sectors compliance with
Prudential Standards is an essential consideration.
Methodology
The use of correct methodology is
critical to success. The following diagram provides a high-level view of how
to approach the development of a Business Continuity Plan / Disaster Recovery
Plan.
