Approach
Our experienced professionals teamed to conduct a strategic review of the company’s current Business Continuity strategy and plans. They successfully validated key components of the BCP against current BCP best standards. The SYNOVAS team delivered firm, sound recommendations for plan improvements. Their recommendations ensured that business continuity plans met the standards for Internal Audit and key stakeholders, and that they would serve IT and thus the business well in the event of a disruption or disaster.
SYNOVAS leveraged its “in flight” approach, reviewing existing assessments and previous Business Impact Analysis results (per client request). The team conducted a concurrent state of Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery while reviewing documentation and interviewing stakeholders.
The team used the best practices approach for Business Continuity Planning (see below) coupled with a SYNOVAS Business Continuity Planning Methodology.
