ETP Consulting
Business Continuity Management
Project Structure
Outline
The ETP Consultancy team specialise in the provision of
Business Continuity Management services, offering scaleable solutions
to a wide range of business sectors. Our consultants provide advice,
facilitation, in depth business reviews etc. right up to the production
of a fully documented recovery plan.
We adopt a flexible approach within the basic structured framework
of business continuity management in order to meet individual requirements
and to integrate with a client's normal method of working as far
as practicable whilst adhering to fundamental best practice.
In outline the primary elements considered when creating a business
continuity planning process are:
-
identification and clarification of the primary business objectives
-
key processes and/or functions involved in the achievement
of the defined objectives
-
internal and/or external constraints and dependencies
-
analysis of impact of failure of key processes or functions
-
determination of likely risks leading to failure of key processes
-
identification of control, contingency or recovery actions
appropriate to risk
Beyond the production of a 'plan', a business continuity management
process should become an integral part of the normal management
of the business, with:
eTrading Partners Ltd is a corporate member of the Business Continuity
Institute and fully supports its goals in the promotion of the highest
standards of professional competence and commercial ethics in the
provision and maintenance of business continuity management and
services.
Schedule of work
It is very difficult to provide a specification of elapsed time
for various project stages in certain areas, such as the identification
of recovery strategies and preparation of BCPs, where the extent
of the work involved will only become clear upon analysis of the
workshop output and information obtained during interviews etc.
In other areas there is a reliance on prompt client review and feedback.
