Keep scope practical
Start with the few products, services and activities whose interruption would create the fastest serious impact.
Identify concentration risk
One owner, one office, one supplier or one cloud account may be a bigger continuity issue than complex technology.
Simple plans
A concise contact list, priority map, alternate work method and tested data recovery process can be more valuable than a large template.
Review after change
New staff, vendors, software and customer contracts may change continuity needs quickly.
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.
