What is Continuity Planning?

Continuity Planning is the process of having plans in place for your organization to continue with their business/services to their customer base and their working relationships with their vendors during a time of natural disaster, technical outage, or any other disruption with the business.

Why is it important?

A thorough Continuity Plan helps organizations to comply with the various regulatory issues. The impact of not having a Continuity Plan in place that satisfies regulatory issues can result in stiff penalties. A solid Continuity Plan helps to reduce the possibility of loosing customers due to not being a viable business during an outage situation. A firm's reputation can be damaged by not handling a disruption in business well. Given today's marketplace with stiff competition an outage can give your competition an edge if they have a Continuity Plan in place that is operationally sound and if they are up and running because they are located in an area not impacted by your organization's specific disruption. Bottom-line the loss of potential customers, reputation at stake and the potential of letting the competition gain ground translate into lost revenue.
