Planning

Business Continuity Planning is vital to the continued success of all businesses.

In today's multifaceted environments virtually every aspect of a company's operation is vulnerable to disruption. A few hours down time could prove extremely costly, or even fatal, and as the number of risks to businesses increases insurance is not enough.

 

We work with our clients to answer the following questions:

  • What threats does your business face?
  • What are your priorities?
  • Do you comply with legislation?
  • What is your best order of recovery?
  • How robust is your workplace recovery strategy?
  • Do your plans stand up to testing?

Where do you start?

 

Pracius develops strategies, plans, training and testing programmes tailored to specific business priorities in clearly defined stages:

Stage 1: Get a plan on the agenda

Stage 2: Determine potential risks and opportunities

Stage 3: Develop and implement a customised plan

Stage 4: Test, rehearse and review

 

All of our work is delivered in line with Business Continuity Management Standards (BS 25999 and ISO 22301 when published) and in accordance with the Business Continuity Institute's Good Practice Guidelines.
