Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery - Selecting A Business Continuity Strategy

 by: Robert Mahood

The risk analysis and business impact analysis have identified risks to key business functions. Also, the potential impacts and probabilities of these risks as well as the costs to prevent or mitigate damages and the time to recover will have been established. Evaluating and selecting strategies is based on using this knowledge. Strategy selection involves focusing on key risk areas and selecting a strategy for each one. The primary goals are to maintain business continuity in the face of a disruption or disaster, to recover key business functions quickly and to mitigate damages.

Many companies associate disaster recovery and business continuity only with IT and communications functions and miss other critical areas that can seriously impact their business. Other common areas for strategy development and selection are employees, facilities, power, customer service, billing, and customer and public relations. All areas require a clear well thought out strategy based on recovery time objectives, cost and profitability impact.

Recovery related to employees is the most overlooked part of strategy selection. Simple steps like the ability to contact employees at home or on their personal cell phone and to ensure all are accounted for at each facility are often overlooked. Communications is critical to keep employees informed and engaged. The most powerful tools for continuity and recovery are the knowledge, capabilities and motivation of employees.

Developing strategies with implementation steps means no time is wasted in a recovery scenario. The focus is to implement the plan quickly and successfully. The right strategies implemented effectively minimize the disruption and mitigate damages.

In some cases, a strategy decision may be no strategy at all. In this scenario and others where there is significant risk to the financial viability of the organization, business interruption or business income insurance may be a viable strategy. Generally, this provides the company with the income it is losing due to damage to its property. It therefore increases the company's chances of survival and the ability to keep its customers and recover.

The Web has evolved into a global electronic publishing medium and increasingly, a medium for conducting electronic commerce in areas such as broadband audio. Electronic commerce means that you can purchase broadband audio products online.

One of the major downsides of the Internet is that ignorant people may pose as quasi-experts. If someone states they are a broadband audio authority then that statement is certainly open to dispute. Organizations who specialize in the production and marketing of broadband audio are more likely to know what they are doing then a quasi broadband audio expert.

We have devoted a lot of time and resources to locating the most reliable broadband audio suppliers from a large list of broadband audio websites. If you click on the links and banners of this page then you'll enter the most appropriate area for broadband audio purchases.
