Business Resumption Planning


Business Resumption Plans involve more than off-site storage and backup processing. They provide the systems capabilities, technical support and operating space that companies need to keep their business going after a disaster. After acquiring an in-depth knowledge of your operations, BRMS will define and document the tasks, equipment, configuration and staff needed to re-establish your critical business and technology needs as quickly as possible.


Developing a Business Resumption Plan involves extensive interviewing and data collection to analyze the nature and workflow of your organization and its minimum requirements to function after a disaster. Those requirements are documented and numerous alternative Business Resumption Strategies are analyzed. BRMS then recommends the strategy that best fits your needs and defines the steps necessary to provide continuity for your business regardless of the nature of the disruption.


A comprehensive Business Resumption Plan is designed to enable the entire company to survive a disaster. Plans are developed on an individual “business function” basis to ensure survival of individual departments or divisions. If needed, the plans can be activated in concert should your entire organization be impacted by a disaster.
