Dependable · Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Planning

How long could we be down before customers start to leave?

We map the dependencies, set recovery targets, name the owners and test the plan, so recovery is rehearsed rather than filed.

How we work, step by step

Proof

What changed for a client

A distribution cooperative mapped about 120 dependencies, and its first tabletop moved the continuity trigger from hour 12 to hours 2 to 3.

Who you'll work with

A Principal Engineer, not a salesperson

Likely lead: Max Dinges or Kyl Gaston. You talk to the engineer who does the work on Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Planning.

Questions buyers ask

We already have backups. Isn't that enough?

Backups are one part. Recovery also depends on who decides, in what order systems come back, and whether attackers can reach the backups. We test all three.

Can we do this ourselves?

Yes. Our free Business Continuity Framework gives you the templates. We help when you want it done faster or tested independently.

How long does it take?

A focused BIA and plan for top-tier systems usually takes a few months. One cooperative went from untested beliefs to tested plans in eight months.

More detail

Plans on paper do not bring systems back. We run the business impact analysis, map the dependencies, set recovery targets and name the owners, then check that backups and recovery actually work. Recovery ends up rehearsed rather than filed.
