A Bird’s-eye View: Planning & Plan Development

Planning, Plan Development & Validation are 3 essential phases of building a BCM program.

The Planning phase includes Risk Assessment, BIAs and resumption Strategies. Plan Development turns resumption Strategies into actionable Plans.  Validation of Plans through Testing and Exercises builds confidence in the program’s effectiveness.

Using different tools from different vendors to conduct those phases results in islands of data and duplication of effort.  Ideally, a single vendor solution can ensure BCM program integrity, viability & sustainability of your BCM program.
