We work with your staff to define your recovery requirements. The BIA and RA help us to determine the requirements for this. We can help you examine the costs and potential benefits associated with recovering each function or computer application. Some typical requirements might include:
Alternative site arrangements
Computer hardware and software components
Communications and network equipment
Unique and/or irreplaceable equipment
Environmental and off-site requirements
Resources: staff, operations support, office supplies, life support (food, water, shelter)
Emergency relocation costs
We then combine your organization-specific information (the recovery requirements data and information from the RA and the BIA) with information from vendors and independent research to develop viable recovery strategies for your organization. We consider every recovery option that may be possible for you, given the resources available to your organization. We present this comprehensive decision-making tool.
After management makes decisions regarding recovery strategies, CRA submits an updated recovery strategy recommendation that reviews flaws in the strategies and we make suggestions to implement scenario-based plans.
