Service dependency
Map each utility to the activity it supports rather than maintaining a generic building checklist.
Duration
Short utility interruptions may be tolerated while longer events require relocation or work suspension.
Shared infrastructure
A building generator or second internet provider may still depend on common rooms, risers or local infrastructure.
Safety first
Continuity plans do not override evacuation, fire, electrical or other life-safety procedures.
Business continuity is organization-specific. Recovery priorities, legal duties, safety requirements, contracts, insurance terms and technical recovery methods should be validated by the responsible people in the organization.
