Overview: Program Development & Methodology

Your plans are the backbone of your business continuity program. They’re the “who does what” instruction manuals for any incident, but they’re much more than paper. Today’s business continuity planning tools run the gamut from simple fill-in-the-blanks templates to robust modular systems that integrate with notification and crisis management systems. And even if you don’t use a tool, your program must include performance metrics and actionable to-dos.

Strange but True!
I just read an article in the LA Times about a golfer who accidentally chipped a rock and started a 12-acre brushfire. Who’d have predicted that? Not me. Granted I don’t know much about golf. Okay, I know nothing about golf, unless it involves windmills and multi-colored golf balls. But golfer as fire-starter was as much a shock to golf aficionados as it was to me, I’m sure. So what’s the point? I want to know what else has happened that you would never have expected. Tell me your “not in my wildest dreams” business interruption tales (we’ll keep your name and your organization’s name out of it if you’d like), and I’ll report all the tall tales and interesting lesson learned in the next issue of CI. Deal? I’m easy to find by phone at (610) 792-4802 or e-mail at buffy@continuityinsights.com.
