Business continuity plan and disaster recovery strategie

How long can your organisation wait before recovering business operations following a disruption in your business chain? It depends upon the recovery strategies and risk mitigation procedures implemented within your company.

After having determined which processes must be recovered following a disruption (through the Business Impact Analysis exercise) and identified the threats and probable consequences that could disrupt the organisation's performance (Risk Assessment - RA), ebrc consultants will provide a framework through a consistent and pragmatic Business Continuity Plan (BCP) to anticipate and mitigate risks.

To mitigate losses from an unscheduled business disruption, ebrc consulting department determines an effective guidance to manage the organisation during a crisis situation, restore all the vital business functions and recover stability. The Business Resilience scope including people, processes, and resources will be centred around the following axes:

  • Developing Business Resilience strategies
  • Developing and implementing emergency operations
  • Implementing Business Continuity Plans that provide recovery within the Recovery Time Objective
  • Preparing a program to create a corporate awareness to execute the BCP
  • Maintaining and testing BCP on a regular basis
  • Crisis management: emergency plan, communication plan...
