Continuity of Operations and Business Continuity Plan

Continuity of Operations (COOP)

Implementing a COOP plan can help:

• Identify the essential functions critical to maintaining vital services.
• Determine the required resources, actions, procedures, and interdependencies to provide a framework for continuing these functions and restoring operations.
• Continue to perform the most essential functions, even in a time of crisis.
• Ensure that there is a well-defined prioritization of functions and systems, which will assist organizations in being more resilient in the face of service disruptions.

Business Continuity Plan (BCP)

Ensuring your organization has a BCP will outline how your business can continue operating during an unplanned disruption in service. It might contain contingencies for processes, assets, human resources, and partner relationships.

Whether your organization needs a COOP plan or your business is looking for a BCP, preparing ahead will allow you to continue essential operations, minimize disruption, and recover to pre-disaster conditions so your organization can resume normal operations and get back to business as usual.
