BCP & DR
Keep running, and recover fast.
Business continuity and disaster recovery planning that keeps critical operations running and gets you back to normal quickly after disruption.
Overview
We help you plan for disruption before it happens: business impact analysis, continuity plans for your critical operations, and disaster recovery strategies with clear roles, recovery objectives, and runbooks, so you keep running and recover quickly when something goes wrong.
Who it's for
Organizations that need to prove they can keep operating and recover from disruption.

Understanding BCP & DR
Business continuity and disaster recovery planning answers a question every organization eventually faces under pressure: when a critical system, site, or supplier goes down, how do we keep operating and how fast do we recover? We start with a business impact analysis to identify which processes truly matter, what they depend on, and how much downtime and data loss each can tolerate, so investment follows real impact rather than assumption.
From that analysis we build business continuity plans and disaster recovery strategies with defined roles, recovery objectives, and step-by-step runbooks. We set realistic RTO and RPO targets per process, align the program with ISO 22301 for continuity and NIST 800-34 for contingency planning, and ensure recovery procedures reflect your actual architecture rather than an idealized diagram that no one can execute during an outage.
A plan that is never tested is a hypothesis. We help you exercise recovery procedures, capture where they break, and maintain the plans as systems and dependencies change, because continuity documentation goes stale quickly. Good BCP and DR means the right people know their role, recovery steps are proven, and objectives are achievable under stress, not just written on paper.
Signs you may need this
What we cover
Inside a BCP & DR engagement
Business impact analysis
We identify critical processes, their dependencies, and tolerable downtime and data loss to prioritize what recovery must protect first.
Recovery objective setting
We define realistic RTO and RPO targets per process so recovery investment matches actual business tolerance.
Continuity plan development
Documented business continuity plans covering roles, decision authority, communications, and alternate ways of working during disruption.
Disaster recovery strategy
Technical recovery strategies for systems and data aligned to your architecture and the objectives set in the impact analysis.
Recovery runbooks
Step-by-step procedures that responders can follow under stress, reducing reliance on individual memory during an incident.
Framework alignment
Programs align with ISO 22301 for continuity and NIST 800-34 for contingency planning to keep the approach defensible.
Plan testing and exercises
We exercise recovery procedures to find gaps before a real event does, then feed lessons back into the plan.
Maintenance and review
We help keep plans current as systems, suppliers, and dependencies change so documentation does not go stale.
Outcomes
What you walk away with
Continuity plans for your critical operations
Tested disaster recovery strategies
Clear recovery objectives and ownership
Confidence you can keep running and recover
Our approach
How we deliver BCP & DR
Business impact analysis
Identify critical operations, dependencies, and impact.
Plan development
Build BCP and DR plans with roles and recovery objectives.
Test & validate
Exercise the plans to confirm they work under pressure.
Maintain & improve
Keep plans current as the business changes.
Where this fits
Common situations we are called in for
Ransomware readiness
Leadership wants confidence that if systems are encrypted, you can recover clean data within a known timeframe rather than negotiating blind.
Customer or regulatory requirement
A client contract or regulator requires a tested continuity and recovery capability you can evidence.
Critical dependency risk
Your operations hinge on a single site, supplier, or platform and you need a plan for its loss.
Untested legacy plan
You have continuity documents on file but they have never been exercised and no longer match your environment.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you test the plans?
Yes, plans are exercised so they work under real pressure, not just on paper.
What standards do you align to?
Business continuity practice aligned to ISO 22301 and NIST guidance.
Do you define RTO and RPO?
Yes, recovery objectives, roles, and runbooks are defined and documented.
How does this relate to incident response?
Continuity and recovery complement IR; together they cover respond and recover.
