A Business Resiliency Plan that is outdated may have areas that are not applicable to the current state of the business. A Business Resiliency Plan lays out policies and procedures that keep the business operational in the case of an adverse situation or disaster. In order to make sure that the plan is still relevant to all aspects of your organization, it should be reviewed regularly and updated as needed, sometimes even between reviews.
Other organizations want to know that you can continue business operations and offer the service that they use as part of their business operations in the event of an emergency for your organization. They want to make sure that the Business Resiliency Plan is updated regularly and is still relevant to the current situation.
They expect that there are regular reviews of the Business Resilience Plan to ensure that the plan is still current or that it is updated for the current needs of the organization. Reviews should happen annually, or when there is a change that would affect the business’s ability to recover or continue operations in the future.
