Business Continuity Planning Consultants

So passionate and

DavisLogic offers a host of service offerings for business continuity and emergency management planning. Our typical approach to Business Continuity Plan (BCP) development is to work closely with the client organization's staff to develop a comprehensive plan based on a five-phase project plan as follows:

1. Business Impact Assessment (BIA)
2. Business Continuity Plan development
3. Staff Training
4. Business Continuity Plan Validation: Drills and Exercises
5. Program Effectiveness Evaluation & Monitoring

Phase 1: Business Impact Assessment

A joint client and DavisLogic team will identify, review, evaluate and prioritize issues that pose potential crises and/or negative impact for the client's business operations. The joint team will also analyze the client's current overall business continuity management planning efforts. The BIA is a diagnostic survey that consists of issue analyses, risk identification, and assessment of potential business impacts and crisis situations. The diagnostic survey assists us to determine the client current capabilities, level of training, and categorization of potential business disruption situations. The review of current initiatives will include:

1. Current Business Continuity Plan/Program Review
2. Corporate Office Capabilities (Assignment of Responsibility)
3. Identification of Resources (Internal, External)
4. Categorization of Potential Issues, Threats, Risks, Business Impacts and Crisis Situations
5. Crisis Communications Systems (including media & security)
6. Current Level of Training
7. Interface Mechanisms

Our approach generally will be to:

Interview Key Personnel: The personnel interviews will review business operations, current business continuity initiatives, general information on business continuity management and emergency preparedness, incident scenarios, policy, compliance initiatives, crisis media response, internal/external interfaces (infrastructures), business risks, strategic direction, documentation and training.

Review Current Written Business Continuity Plans and Materials: This review will consist of a comparison of the present Business Continuity Plan Manuals and Supporting Materials against applicable corporate policies, procedures and applicable requirements. Recommendations for improvements will be made as a part of this review.

Phase 2: Business Continuity Plan Development

Our approach is to assist the client's management in designing, developing and implementing a Business Continuity Plan, as follows:

1. Develop draft BCP materials.
2. Review the draft materials with key personnel.
3. Prepare final BCP materials.

We concentrate on assisting client management in developing a Business Continuity Management Plan to facilitate response to a variety of potentially disruptive situations faced by the client.

Phase 3: Key Staff Training

We assist the client in the development and implementation of staff training based on the Business Continuity Plan developed in Phase 2, as follows:

1. Develop draft BCP Training Program.
2. Review the draft material with key client personnel.
3. Develop final BCP Training Program.
4. Schedule and Conduct BCP Training.

Phase 4: Plan Validation: Drills and Exercises

We assist the client in the validation of the Business Continuity Plan through the development and implementation...
