Business Continuity
Keep trading through the thing you didn’t plan for.
People often think continuity planning means data backup. Backup is one piece of it. The plan also has to cover premises, people, suppliers, systems, cash and how you talk to everyone. And it has to be tested, because a plan nobody has rehearsed falls apart the moment it meets a real event.
We start with a business impact analysis to work out what truly can’t stop and for how long. Then we set recovery targets against that, write the procedures, and rehearse them on a schedule so the holes show up in an exercise instead of an emergency.
What you get
Impact analysis first
What can’t stop, and for how long, before anyone designs a recovery plan.
Targets you’ve agreed
Recovery time and recovery point targets set and costed for each function.
Actually rehearsed
Exercised on a schedule. Plans nobody has tested fail when you need them.
Lined up with your cover
Built alongside your business interruption policy so the two agree.
Common questions
Same service. The main page lives here in Risk & Compliance, and the Insurance division links across to it, because continuity planning and business interruption cover actually need to be designed side by side.
