Strategies and Plans

Activity Description Benefit

Crisis Management

Crisis Management and Emergency Response Plans are

the overarching crisis/incident management plans and are

designed to achieve effective co-ordination of the

organization’s resources to large scale and unusual

events to protect life, property and reputation (e.g.,

through effective internal and external communications,

and co-ordination with the local and international

regulators) during and immediately following any crisis

affecting the organization.

Assists the organization in defining roles

and responsibilities of the individuals who

will be instrumental in responding and

make decisions at the time of a crisis.

Furthermore, Crisis Communication plans

helps identify internal and external

stakeholders and document the

communication protocols between all

related parties.

Business Continuity

Business Continuity Procedures define the actions and

resources necessary to achieve the objectives of the

organization’s recovery strategy. The procedures will

provide guidance through clearly documented, defined,

action-oriented tasks. These will address what needs to

be carried out during a crisis in order to minimize decision

points at the time.

BC Procedures contain actionable tasks

with clear beginnings and end points to

report to operation center executives for

managing recovery-effort progress,

including identifying tasks to be

undertaken, teams to complete them,

team assignments and identifying the key

contacts, suppliers and resources

necessary to support the recovery.

Asset Recovery

Recovery strategies are developed based on our Asset

recovery strategy development model. We collaborate with

the organization to customize the asset recovery model,

containing an appropriate set of circumstances for which

business continuity management strategies should be

developed for your organization.

This model eliminates creating an

unmanageable single plan and helps

avoid an enormous number of event

specific plans, by focusing your strategies

and plans on the five key asset classes an

organization must protect and recover for

continued sustainability of any given

process. These are Workplace,

Equipment, Technology, People and Third

Party service providers.

People & Process

Activity Description Benefit

Training &

Awareness

To provide an awareness and training strategy within the

BCM framework - to help the BCM program

implementation team members facilitate awareness and

training by defining their roles and responsibilities within

the implementation process

Successful BCM program implementation

occurs when everyone involved in the

process is aware and equipped to fulfill his

or her BCM responsibilities. These

stakeholders succeed through a well-

planned set of activities targeted

appropriately to them.

Testing & Exercising

To provide guidance in delivering and supporting test

program initiatives - to introduce business process work-

area recovery testing, emergency communications testing

and desktop walk-through testing

Successful BCM program implementation

occurs when everyone involved in the

process is aware and equipped to fulfill his

or her BCM responsibilities. These

stakeholders succeed through a well-

planned set of activities targeted

appropriately to them.

Co-sourcing

At times, running a full fledged BCM program becomes

cumbersome and time consuming for organizations who

are strapped for resources, however are prudent to

understand the value BCM provides towards sustaining

their business in the aftermath of a crisis. In these

circumstances, organizations can benefit from co-sourcing

the BCM function to CORE. CORE can help in the

development and implementation of a robust End-to-End

BCM framework.

Dedicated team of experienced BCM

resources embedded within the

organization to ensure end-to-end BCM

implementation. There will be ongoing

knowledge transfer and CORE can assist

in building an internal team to assume full

responsibilities of the BCM program on an

ongoing basis.

Change Management

The objective is to help ensure the continued viability of

the recovery and restoration plans that are developed as

part of this project, plan administration guidelines will be

developed and documented.

These guidelines will address the on-

going maintenance and testing required

supporting the Business Continuity

Program
