Plan objectives  \n3.  Instructions  \n4.Disaster-specific scenarios,business impact &procedures  \n5.  Preventative measures &action plans  \n|  |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| 1  \u003Cbr>List of Emergency   |  |\n|  | Contacts   |\n\n# List of Emergency Contacts\n\nConsider starting your document with a tabled list of personnel who may need tobe contacted in an emergency.This may include key stakeholders,departmentmanagers and operations staff.It's also a good idea to include the team memberswho wrote (and maintain)this plan.  \nEach entry should include a column for:  \n·  Name  \n·  Title &department  \n·Work location (if applicable)  \n·  Home phone  \n·  Mobile phone  \n·  Email  \n·  Home address  \nSome company business recovery planswill also include a space for the“role”of each person in an emergency.Butthis information can also be includedthroughout the sections that follow.  \n|  |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| 2   | Plan Objectives   |\n\n# Plan Objectives\n\nThe opening section should state the specific objectives of the plan.It's importantto define the scope.  \nFor example,is this merely your IT business recovery plan,or does it apply to theentire organization?  \nConsider adding a bullet-point list of the objectives:  \n·  State the purpose of the plan  \n·  Identify how the plan will assist personnel in a disaster scenario  \nThese bullets should essentially be a rough introductory outline of what’sincluded in the document and why.  \n# Instructions\n\nProvide clear direction on how to implement and use the plan.This section brieflyoutlines what needs to happen when a disaster occurs.It should answer some ofthese questions:  \n·  When and how exactly does the planbecome effective?Who activates it?When does it end?  \n·  What specific problems need to occurfor the plan to become active?Forexample,what differentiates a simpleelectrical outage from a prolongeddisruption to critical utilities?  \nHow many systems need to go down(and for how long)for the situation tobe deemed a disaster?  \nDoes a press release need to becreated?Who is responsible tospeaking to the media and otherexternal organizations?  \n| Disaster-Specific  \u003Cbr>4  \u003Cbr>Scenarios   |\n| --- |\n|  |\n\n# Disaster-specific scenarios,business impact &procedures\n\nThis is the meat of your document,where you'll identify specific risks and thesteps that must be taken when various disasters occur.In this sample companybusiness recovery plan,we've combined the scenarios,impact and proceduresinto a single section.However,a more comprehensive plan could easily devoteentire sections to each of these.  \nHere's what just one entry could look like:  \nEvent:Fire  \nBusiness impact:  \nSmoke and fire at your facility are a serious threat to both people andbusiness systems.Identify how so:what IT infrastructure,for example,ismost critical,and how would operations be affected?How quickly couldoperations be restored?  \n## Definition:\n\nWhat kind of fire (how big)warrants the emergency procedures below?Forexample,what if it's a small fire that's easily extinguished by on-sitepersonnel?  \n## Procedures:\n\n·  Create a specific list of steps that must be taken  \n·  Don't take any steps for granted:Step 1 is to evacuate and call 9-1-1  \n·Alert your disaster recovery personnel  \n·  Work with fire responders to identify scope of damage  \n·  Contact third-party vendors to initiate recovery process(insurance  \nproviders,infrastr","cbCaiefIIYJWesY5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiefIIYJWesY5","pdf",3708967,"English","# Introduction\n## List of Emergency Contacts\n## Plan Objectives\n## Instructions\n## Disaster-specific scenarios, business impact & procedures","[{\"question\":\"What are the five critical components included in a business recovery plan?\",\"answer\":\"The plan covers emergency contacts, plan objectives, implementation instructions, disaster-specific scenarios with business impact and procedures, and preventative measures and action plans.\"},{\"question\":\"What details should be included for each person in the emergency contacts list?\",\"answer\":\"Each entry should include name, title and department, work location when applicable, home phone, mobile phone, email, and home address.
