Business Continuity: What is it?
Business Continuity is not something implemented at the time of a disaster; Business Continuity refers to those activities performed daily to maintain service, consistency, and recoverability. A good Business Contuity plan ensures that critical business functions will be available to customers, suppliers, regulators, and other entities that must have access to those functions.
If a disaster strikes such as fire, theft, flood, etc, can your staff access information to perform critical functions or are they dead in the water? If you’re not sure, ask yourself the following questions. If you respond to yes to even one question, you should consider developing and implementing a business continuity plan.
Business Continuity: Don’t ignore it
Of companies experiencing catastrophic data loss:
- 43% of companies never reopened
- 51% of companies closed within 2 years
- 80% of companies that do not recover from a disaster within one month are likely to go out of business.
- 75% of companies without business continuity plans fail within three years of a disaster
- Companies that aren’t able to resume operations within ten days (of a disaster hit) are not likely to survive
- Of the businesses that experience a disaster and have no emergency plan, 43 percent never reopen; of those that do reopen, only 29 percent are still operating two years later
