Business Continuity Plan Generator - US$199.00

Business Continuity Planning

Healthy businesses sometimes collapse and fail due to factors outside their control. A major disaster, such as a fire or a flood can put premises and vital business information systems out of action for a considerable period of time. The speed at which the business recovers to an operational state can determine whether it will survive.

Risk assessment and contingency planning ensures that the most vital operations and systems are restored quickly and efficiently. This is where a business continuity planning (BCP) process is vital. There are several complex, expensive computer software sytstems available to help you in the planning process. They are aimed at big-budget enterprises with dedicated BCP staff. The BCP Generator™ is easy to use and runs on any PC or laptop that is capable of reading MSWord documents.

The BCP Generator™ consists of a comprehensive guide to BCP and a BCP template. The prosess is reduced to a form-filling exercise. Each section of the guide links to the corresponding section in the template (and vice versa) so it's like having an expert looking over your shoulder.
