Business Continuity Planning Workshop

Planning This course is not yet bookable.

Examine a business process from your area of responsibility, assess the consequences of interruption and develop a recovery plan. Agree priorities and resources with other participants and revise your contribution after feedback from another professional role.

When a central process fails, several departments may compete for the same replacement resources. In this planned two-day workshop, you begin with a business impact analysis: jointly determine how interruption consequences develop over time and which services should be restored first. Map resources and dependencies, compare continuity options and propose a recovery sequence.

In the shared disruption case, two priority processes need the same replacement team. Agree the sequence, develop a limited alternative for the other process and work through handover and recovery. Each participant explains an individual contribution and revises it after feedback from another professional role.

Take the agreed analysis and recovery plan forward as a basis for organisational approval and initial testing. Information from your organisation is the starting point; confidential details can be anonymised or replaced with an example case.

What you will work on

  • Assess time-dependent consequences of interruption to a business process
  • Connect recovery priorities with resources and dependencies
  • Handle competing demands without allocating the same resource twice

Who it is for

  • Leadership teams and business unit heads
  • Owners of critical business processes
  • Business continuity and operations managers

Topics

  • Scoped business impact analysis
  • Time-dependent consequences and priorities
  • Minimum resources and shared constraints
  • Continuity and recovery options
  • Testing, revision and preparation for organisational approval

Your result

Your plan, worked through together in the tabletop exercise, records interruption consequences, replacement resources, assignments and the agreed recovery sequence.

Prerequisites

A working knowledge of the selected process and its main interfaces is required; BCM certification or detailed knowledge of a standard is not a prerequisite. The relevant process and resource owners should take part and have access to existing information on services and dependencies. An anonymised or example case can be used.

Format and approach

Two planned in-person days with cross-functional group work and individual contributions. All tasks will also be prepared so they can be run with paper materials and analogue boards. The disruption exercise is a tabletop review, not a technical failover test. The approach is not tied to a single BCM standard, and the workshop does not include certification against one.

Planned learning time: 2 days
