Business Impact & Risk Analysis - The first step in sensible business continuity process is to consider the potential impacts of each type of disaster or event.

Creating a Disaster Recovery Plan - A sound disaster recovery / business continuity plan is essential to protect the well being of an organization. This cannot really be over emphasized... yet many enterprises still side step the issue or hold plans, which are clearly out of date or inadequate.
Service Level Agreements - Service level agreements (SLAs) are fundamental to business continuity. The bottom line is that they define your minimum levels of availability from key suppliers, and often determine what actions will be taken in the event of serious disruption. Consequently, they require full consideration and attention and must be constructed extremely carefully.
Disaster Recovery Training - Appropriate knowledge and training underpins the whole of the disaster recovery management initiative.
Contingency & Audit Plan Assurance - Having created the recovery/continuity plan, it is important to ensure that it remains up to date and workable. Equally, it is essential to monitor contingency practices on the ground to ensure that they are appropriate.
