The people in your organisation will write a business continuity plan most suited to your organisation.
We can offer a free review of the plan, we can assist with a number of aspects around the plan and its implementation.
Business Continuity planning is a very specific task, there is no one size fits all. There are a number of basic rules that should be followed when writing the plan, again these are not hard and fast but understanding them is important.
The planning follows on from a number of other tasks, like the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) Analysis, Risk Alalysis and a number of other steps. All the basic steps are on the how to page on this site, it is important to have an understanding of them.
The team has been formed, the meetings have started and you are putting the Business Continuity Plan together. I mean how hard can it be, this doesn’t seem to be that big a deal. However focus on what the plan has to achieve is important, many plans are poorly written and the reason is likely to surprise.
Loss of focus tends to be the biggest cause of poor business continuity planning, the plan should be designed to keep the business engaged with its customers.
The truth be told continuity planning shouldn’t be any problem for most businesses, the plans will differ enormously from one business to the next. Even two near identical business units will have significant differences in their business continuity plans.
