<p style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:20px">Crucial Requirements:</span></span></p>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">A business plan for the future rests on a thorough understanding of where you are now as an organization. Carrying out a SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) or a PESTEL analysis (Political, Economic, Social-cultural, Technological, Environmental and Legal) are useful tools to help you do this. Consider any strength you can build upon and any weaknesses you need to address. What external influences are impacting upon your organization (changes in the law, government policy, users)?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">You need to decide how you rate priorities in your organization and what each category means. This will be different for all organizations. You might choose to have High Medium Low or a numbering system e.g. 1-4. Priority in the BIA sense means: in the event of a disruption, which services need to be prioritised for recovery and which could wait?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">You now need to identify who you depend upon to deliver your service functions (dependencies) and also who relies on your function being delivered successfully (dependents). This enables contingency arrangements to be set up as appropriate e.g. who needs to be informed if the functions are not available?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">All these scientific measures are intellectually interesting, but lawyers care most about real-world consequences. Do these measures of implicit bias predict an individuals behaviors or decisions?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">What is the technique used to make business impact analysis more intelligent and what is the benefit of doing it in terms of the actions that need to be done to cope with the impact?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">There is increasing recognition that agility is an imperative for success of contemporary organizations as they face intense rivalry, globalization, and time-to-market pressures</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Recovery Point Objective: What is the age of the files that must be recovered from backup storage for normal operations to resume: How frequently are your backups performed?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Identify who your main stakeholders are internally and externally. Eg, who are your audience/who do you provide content for/who do you provide technical support for etc?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">In an increasingly service-oriented world, best effort service delivery is not good enough. But how does the business know whether it is getting an adequate service?</span></span><br />
</li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="color:#000000"><span style="font-size:15px">Think about the information/data that you require to resume activities at the agreed level ie could you manage if you lost all IT data from the last 24 hours/7 days?</span></span><br />
