(BCPDR) Business continuity planning involves identifying the critical functions and services the business delivers and planning for how to maintain or resume operations in any disruptive event or emergency (such as a power outage, fire, flood or earthquake). An Organization’s inability to deliver critical functions and services could result in the following impacts:

• Disruption in services provided to clients, staff and suppliers
• Failure to meet contractual or legislated obligations
• Financial repercussions, penalties
• Organization’s reputation could be adversely affected
• Loss of Business as customers might evaluate alternate options

Any organization should ensure robust business continuity arrangements are in place to avoid the above.
