Coverage
Examples include the percentage of priority activities with current BIA data or exercised plans.
Capability
Compare stated recovery targets with tested recovery results where appropriate.
Improvement
Track overdue corrective actions and recurring findings.

A 100% plan completion rate says little if plans have not been exercised or dependencies are wrong.
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.
