The Road to ResilienceThe above reminds us that the spirited nature of business continuity demands continuous improvement; a relentless pursuit to enhance our skills, adopt new methods and tools, and employ leading technologies in search of our ultimate goal…the resilient organization. To that point I am very pleased to present to you our conference program for the 2016 Continuity Insights Management Conference.

The hallmark of our event has been our ability to continue to present original, compelling and timely content. To that end you will note many new topics as well as many new subject matter experts on this year’s program. As an example our mission to develop more meaningful and usable content has resulted in the session on “empowering the BC manager” as a keynote. Cyber, social media, ISO standards, supply chain, civil unrest, the 2015-2016 CI-KPMG study results, GRC, communicating with the C-Suite, etc. – there are clearly great “takeaways” from each of these sessions.

As 2016 celebrates the 14th anniversary of the Continuity Insights Management Conference, we understand that our continued success is the direct result of meeting your needs. We have not increased our registration fees for several years, we continue to extend to our attendees attractive hotel room rates, and as in years’ past your meals, networking events, and conference materials are included in your registration. Also included in your registration is our Music City celebration on Tuesday night, complete with live entertainment, food, drink, dance, and musical-themed games and prizes.

We are very excited about the Continuity Insights Management Conference moving west to the beautiful Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville. I’m confident that you will thoroughly enjoy the property, achieve full value in your conference attendance, and continue to make our conference your event of choice.

See you in Nashville!

Sincerely,

Robert S. Nakao Executive Publisher

P1 empowering the BCM: examining the Habits and Characteristics of Highly effective BCM’s

David Nolan, Fusion Risk Management, Moderator

A panel of leading Business Continuity Managers will share their perspectives on the behaviors, tactics, strategies and characteristics that highly effective BCM’s have in common. The session will focus in on six key areas that differentiate the most successful BCM’s. Some BCM’s push on a rope. Others lead from the front of the room. Some cry for attention and support. Others demand it…and get it. What can we learn from effective BCM’s to make us and our programs more successful?

9:45 a.m. – 10:45 a.m. Breakout sessions

a1 When a travel Risk Becomes Your Disaster

Michael Keating, RGA Reinsurance Company

Business continuity professional are quite familiar with crises such as fire, floods or earthquakes, but how does an organization prepare for a travel risk management issue such as executive kidnapping, missing plane or key person trapped in country during a military coup? This session will cover the basics of travel risk management and duty of care, while giving participates an opportunity to interact with a realistic travel risk scenario and solve the non-traditional business interruptions it brings.

B1 the BCM Professional’s Role in Cyber Breaches

Doug Weldon, S&P Capital IQ

Cyber security attacks has grown to be the number one threat to businesses and governments globally. Breaches can occur in numerous ways, and the evidence of their existence may be hard to discern. Security professionals have a central role in detection and mitigation of cyber attacks, but the many forms a breach can take may not be detectable by normal security mechanisms. This puts the role of business continuity professionals front and center in the newest and top-most threat to our businesses. This presentation will serve to provide a frame around these roles and describe many of the common threat scenarios for which BCM professionals must prepare, ones which many are not prepared for today.

D1 Continuity Insights/KPMg Business Continuity Management Benchmarking study Results

Robbie Atabaigi, KPMG LLP

Enterprises today face the challenges of building, sustaining and transforming their enterprise BCM programs to support the organization and interdependent stakeholders. In 2013, Continuity Insights and KPMG LLP commissioned a global study to assess the current state of BC management programs, including program status, the impact of prevailing market forces, and the impact of recent events on program governance, risks and compliance. Attendees will be able to leverage and apply this data to their own BC management programs.

e1 Risk & governance Mitigation – Protecting Your Brand

Frank Leonetti, Northstar Advisory Services LLC

BC Planning has taken on a higher level of Risk Based Decision making, with the level of Regulations, Cyber Security and Increased 3rd Party Reliance (Supply Chain), the BIA and Risk Assessments we knew from the past have morphed into a more comprehensive and focused criticality than ever. This presentation walks the attendee thru that migration and the future of analysis to resiliency in today’s world.

f1 enterprises Are transforming, Market Place Priorities Are Changing. is Your Business Ready?

Michael Errity, IBM

g1 the Case for Developing Organizational Resilience Capability

Mark Carroll, Income Research

Out of the box thinking and taking creative, innovative actions to address those ideas are a few of the keys to developing the capability for organizational resilience. Attendees will learn of and discuss examples of creative and innovative actions taken to improve the resilience capability of the organizations profiled. This session will consist of a series of five to seven minute presentations by various practitioners on innovative approaches that have been taken to enhance organizational resilience capability that were neither intuitive nor obvious and the capabilities that have been put in place. The session will include a brief Q&A with the practitioners profiled.

11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Breakout sessions

a2 time Warner Cables’ (tWC) Path to Declaring Conformity to isO 22301

C1 From typhoons to Civil Unrest: the Right Plan tackles Multiple Disruptions

Derek Bluestone, SunGard AS

In 2015 alone, this company was able to maintain business functions through numerous U.S. winter storms that resulted in office closures in 16 different states. From a global perspective, this company was able to maintain business functions during Typhoon Chan-Hom which caused office closures in Taipei, Taiwan. Outside of natural disasters, February 2015 saw civil unrest in the U.S. which led to delayed openings and early closures of its operations there for two days. Through each office disruption, this company was able to produce reports that properly recognized issues in order to restart business function as quickly as possible, leading to a performance scorecard that was previously unrealized.

D2 Conducting a Business Continuity Plan Audit

Ted Brown, KETCHConsulting

Just as companies conduct regular audits of their financial controls, they should also examine their business continuity plans, ensuring that critical business functions can be conducted in the event of a disaster, or other major disturbance. This session will discuss questions that can be used in assessing their company’s business continuity posture. Sample questions include: What are BCP objectives? Is the BCP relevant to all employees? Date of last BIA? BCP and Change Management? Test schedule? Business partners? Risk mitigation? BCP and Emergency Management? And many more will be discussed.

D3 Manage the Crisis, Don’t Let it Manage You

Scott Ream, Virtual Corporation

Reliable and accurate analytics are key towards effective crisis management. Once a domain of only crisis and incident managers, SITSTAT deployment gives operations and other managers a real-time status view of key functional areas within their enterprise. Track key criteria in real time by name and the status of key functions. Chat with colleagues to collaborate on satisfying open resource requests. Conduct ad hoc “what if” analysis and data mining. Easily export data to MS Office formats. This presentation includes a live demonstration of a “real-world” Situational Status Dashboard to hear and see SITSTAT best practice examples.

f2 From Disaster Recovery to Operational Readiness

Andres A. Calderon, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana

Disaster Recovery is seen as a disability insurance, against the risk that a disability creates a barrier for our business to complete their core functions and disaster recovery is there to bring our business back to normal. Most value is obtained when an operational readiness approach is taken, so that the value of DR is immediately recognized by the business and resiliency is part of the operational fabric. The functional breakdown of DR combined with the technology taxonomy allow us to identify documentation objects and these are aligned with owners that benefit from the documents.

g2 ensuring supply Chain Continuity

Mike Janko, Goodyear Tire & Rubber, moderator (panel TBD)

Reliance on third-parties to perform or supply key elements of the business continues to grow. Because of this trend, the need to understand and manage the risk associated with third-party disruption is absolutely critical. Supply chain continuity planning involves understanding the risk associated with a reliance on third-parties, understanding third-party business continuity planning techniques and solutions and taking action based on assessment results. Come to this session to hear more about the full spectrum of supply chain business continuity planning techniques and how to manage third-party risk to an acceptable level.

1:00 p.m. – 3:45 p.m. workshop (a 2-hour, 45-minute session)

B2 Cybersecurity Update for the Business Continuity Community

Dr. Nader Mehravari, Software Engineering Institute (SEI), Carnegie Mellon University

A day rarely goes by where we don’t hear about a multitude of cybersecurity events adversely affecting public and private organizations, communities, and even nations. It is, therefore, critical for business continuity, incident management, disaster recovery, and emergency management professionals and practitioners to continually stay abreast of the latest and ongoing developments in the cybersecurity arena. This workshop is intended to provide an overarching update on the cybersecurity landscape focusing on the needs of business continuity community.

1:00 p.m. – 2:15 p.m. Breakout sessions

a3 Resiliency through the Riots: exelon’s Response to Baltimore’s Civil Unrest

Erin Holloway and Kathy Bosse, Exelon

In the afternoon of April 27, 2015, following Freddie Gray’s funeral, riots began in West Baltimore. This event impacted 11 Exelon facilities in its downtown Baltimore location. The protests and riots lasted for eight days and affected more than 4,000 Exelon employees within three critical operating companies. This was the largest business disruption in Exelon’s history there were no employees injured, no Exelon property damaged and little to no loss of revenue. By providing appropriate guidance and collaborating efforts, Exelon’s Business Continuity team effectively prepared the company to continue maintaining the highest standards of safety and reliability for its people, customers, and communities.

C2 smashing the silo Between BC & DR

Phil Lambert, Ripcord

In the complex business environment of today where organizations are comprised of specialists, it is critically important that the business continuity team and the disaster recovery team talk, collaborate, and build an enterprise resiliency program together. No longer can an organization’s resiliency program operate in silos. In this session we will discuss the strategies and tactics you can implement that will make a huge difference in building that synergic team.

D4 Optimize Your BC steering Committee for Program Oversight and Organizational insight

Joanna D’Aquanni, SAS, and Michael Lazcano, Gap Inc.

A well-constructed and managed steering committee can be one of the most powerful resources in your business continuity toolbox. The Committee is an essential governance body for your Program and a support structure for key initiatives. Alignment to Committee insights on organizational changes and objectives ensure ongoing Program value. Attend this session to learn first-hand insights in forming and cultivating an effective steering committee. Special attention will be given to the nuances of selecting members, organizing and developing meeting content, and maximizing Committee engagement. Attendees are asked to bring and share their experiences for a best practice discussion.

e2 governance vs. Deployment

Joe Flach, Safe Harbor Consulting

BC and DR reveals two distinct organization hierarchies: The hierarchy responsible for program development; and, the hierarchy that manages the deployment of the plans at time of a disaster. This session discusses the differences in the roles and responsibilities of these two organizations, especially focusing on who governs the programs, who is responsible for making sure the process and procedures are followed in accordance to corporate mandates and management expectations.

g3 exercise Facilitation techniques

John Jackson, Fusion Risk Management, moderator (panel TBD)

Exercises are an excellent tool to develop competencies, create organizational awareness, identify opportunities for improvement, engage management, and prove that response and recovery capabilities work. Our panel is highly experienced in developing and facilitating exercise sessions that dramatically improve preparedness and management buy-in. This session will be a highly interactive discussion of ideas and techniques, ensuring that attendees leave with relevant and usable takeaways.

2:30 p.m. – 3:45 p.m. Breakout sessions

a4 From Here to there: A Maturity Model Approach to Measure BCM Program Performance and Company Readiness

Brian Strong, Strong Consulting LLC, and Melissa Owings, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska

An important tool in facilitating BCM program continuous improvement is establishing a metrics and measurement process that can help you benchmark current-state and end-state performance. In fact, standards such as ISO 22301 include requirements for monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation. Regardless of the approach taken to develop metrics that matter to your organization, they must be quality metrics. This session will provide attendees with a practical example of how to adapt a maturity model to meet senior management expectations and provide a road map for reaching the desired end-state.

B3 social Media Risk: What is it And How should You Plan, test, and Respond?

Dru Ullery, BC in the Cloud

In today’s always connected world, information is communicated quickly, and usually in less than 140 characters. When an incident occurs and you are knee-deep in response, do you know what information is being communicated? Do you have a social media strategy as part of planning, risk, and incident management? This session will explore the influence of social media and its risks, and discuss the inclusion of social media in testing regimens; and how to build strategies as part of your Planning, Risk Analysis and Incident Management.

C3 Psychology of Plan Design

Monika Stoeffl, CR Solutions

The three main reasons why plans are not used include: 1) The user is intimidated by the plan, 2) The plan does not meet the user’s needs, and, 3) The plan was inaccessible or unknown. This session will look the first two reasons. This interactive session will explore how applying concepts of psychology and design thinking can start to overcome the most common usability challenges. Participants will gain an actionable understanding of the what, why, and how of plan design concepts and leave with a tool to help in the designing and redesigning of plans.

D5 Business impact Analysis Advanced Principles

Telva Chase, Integra Telecom

After conducting more than 25 BIAs, the presenter will share what works to achieve a BIA that is accepted by executive management.

a5 Resilience, iOe, and Real time situational Awareness

Pete O’Dell, Swan Island Networks

The emerging Internet of Everything (IOE) is going to have a major impact on our lives in the next five to 10 years. Established ways of doing things will be disrupted by a spate of smart, small and very inexpensive devices that will overwhelm continuity managers with far more information before, during and after an incident. This session will discuss examples of existing and emerging technologies as well as an overview of future projections and products.

a6 You’re Having a Disaster, Now What?

Tom Serio, Verizon Wireless

The presenter will walk you through a real disaster that impacted a large business and forced them to enact ALL of their business continuity plans. What’s the reality of the situation? What’s were upper management thinking? How do quickly and successfully did employees get back to work? Learn from some very valuable and real lessons learned while recovering a corporate campus from a nine day outage.

B4 the Quarterback’s Dilemma – Continuity Management During Business transformation

Allan Cytryn, Risk Masters, Inc.

The Business Continuity Manager faces the same challenges as a quarterback, surrounded by chaos he is still expected to “carry out the play.” A solution to this challenge of increasing uncertainty may be found by integrating Risk Management and Quality Assurance into Quality Risk Management (“QRM”) and by introducing QRM into the BCM process. QRM elevates the role of risk identification, management and mitigation in the planning process. It transforms where project risk is managed, and enabling the BC project team to collectively share and address the issues of risk along with BCM.

B5 translating Crisis Management and Business Continuity for Millennials

Grace Burley, Strategic Crisis Advisors, and Gil Grein, Facebook

As the millennial generation continues to become the center of power within organizations, the crisis management and business continuity industry must adapt to meet their needs. Many traits of the millennial workforce are highly conducive to responding to critical incidents, while other traits may be more challenging. Much like CEOs of all ages, millennials want their information easily accessible and highly visually stimulating. In this presentation, the co-presenters will explore how to best communicate with millennials to get their buy in and develop plans and tools to support them. The presenters will provide an overview of how crisis management and business continuity is being implemented globally for Facebook.

B6 Making incident Management Work for Your Organization

Kathleen Lucey, S&P Capital IQ and SNL

Incident Management is what needs to be done to protect your people AFTER they evacuate the building; to organize and document the tasks to support and sustain your people; to assess damages; to interface with BC/DR plans, with corporate management and corporate support functions. An important new concept, Individual Default Response, details what each employee will do if a disruptive event occurs during work hours and what s/he will do if an event occurs outside of work hours. This session will explain how to develop and implement this critical phase of your emergency interruption response.

C4 What Do You Do When a Black Bear enters Your Building? Tim Mathews Educational Testing Services (ETS)According to an FBI study (2000-2013) there were 160 active shooter incidents that resulted in 1,043 casualties. The frequency and severity of these tragic events are growing and 70% occur in the workplace or educational institutions. This session will discuss Why ETS chose to conduct an “active shooter” exercise on its campus, How ETS designed and executed the exercise and What lessons were learned by staff, management and the professionals who choreographed the exercise.

e5 incident Management Ownership and Adoption Best Practices

Jason Zimmerman, MissionMode

When properly deployed, Incident Management systems can be a game-changer for business continuity teams. According to a recent Gartner Hype Report, Crisis/Incident Management (C/IM) system adoption is expanding rapidly from approximately 35 percent penetration in 2014 to an estimated 60 percent by 2019. Using case study examples, the presenter will demonstrate best and worst practices for deploying incident management technology, what questions you should ask a prospective C/IM system vendor about their support model, and help organizations maximize the impact of their Incident Management systems from the start.

e6 Risk transformation – strategic Value to the executive suite

David Sarabacha, Deloitte & Touche LLP

Risk Transformation is about enhancing the value both actual and perceived from the executive suite around proactive risk management. How would you like to gain more attention from the executive suite and demonstrate your value to them? How? By talking their language. In many organization, there is an assumption that resilience is in place, but what the executives and board really want to talk about is strategic risk and how changes both within the organization as well as in the marketplace in which they compete, will affect market share, share price and the growth opportunities for the entire organization, including its personnel. Join us for a panel discussion on how others have achieved just that.

g5 Developing a strategic training PlanMike Keating, RGA Reinsurance, moderator (panel TBD)Training and awareness is one of the most important activities performed by BC professionals, but it is also a significant challenge. Unfortunately, there is often very little strategic focus and planning when it comes to executing the organization’s business continuity planning processes, as well as executing response and recovery strategies. In this session, the panel will share the best of what we receive from the attendees, as well as offer commentary on best practices and solid solutions to build individual competencies and create awareness throughout the organization.

a7 Business Continuity – A Critical element in Your Company’s Arsenal to Fight Cyber Attacks

Linda Laun, IBM

The threat of cyber attacks and data breaches continues to grow, as do the associated costs. As your business moves to cloud-based technologies and enables business processes for mobile and the Internet of Things (IOT) you introduce new risks. How can you safeguard your critical data, applications and reduce the cyber risk? Learn how BCM can be a key factor in responding effectively to cyber security attacks and reducing the cost. You’ll also learn how to calculate the costs of a data breach, the potential savings BCM can offer, and create a strong business case for business continuity.

William Marotz, Schneider, Inc.

In August 2015 the DHS put out a Savannah Hurricane Scenario Analysis Report, however our tornado event took place on April 25, 2015, prior to the report coming out. How did the DHS warnings compare to and what Schneider actually experienced? The presenter will share short, medium and long-term issues of note and include comments regarding the importance of planning for these types of events.

B7 Business Continuity = Work From Home? HA HA HA HA!

Howard Mannella, Alternative Resiliency Services Corp.

How often have you heard, “We don’t need a business continuity plan because everyone can work from home (WFH)!” How many times has this oft-quoted bromide been an excuse for lack of proper planning? In this discussion you will learn the common myths about working remotely, the pitfalls and problems you will encounter, why WFH is an essential but not complete solution, and how to strengthen your WFH strategy and mitigate the shortcomings.

D7 Can One tool Really Do it All?

Rhonda Russell and Carinda Mickelsen, ADP

When faced with choosing a new business resiliency software, ADP’s Business Resiliency Management Team decided to compare them all to find the one tool that could successfully “do it all.” From planning to exercising to tracking live events, we added up the positives and scheduled demos with the top contenders. Join us for this session and we’ll share our walk through this journey, the good, the bad and the surprises along the way.

D8 the tao of Community Resilience

Daniel Hahn, Santa Rosa County EM

In an age of political turmoil and mistrust of governments, having an outlet for creative problem solving that involves all aspects of communities during disasters, is critical. Utilized correctly, a public-private partnership is a win-win situation for all participants. This presentation will make the case for the continued support from all sectors, for public-private partnerships. A description of public-private partnerships will be given to show the broad spectrum of opportunities for such a partnership. It also involves a chain, blindfolds, and a guy in a kilt.

e7 Maximizing support for Your BCM Program With Key governance entitiesJoanna D’Aquanni, SAS, and Margaret Millett, MetLifeThe ISO 22301 standard emphasizes the importance of engaging interested parties in the development and management of a BCM program. In most organizations however, a business continuity program is a cost center competing for stakeholder attention. To get the attention and support your Program needs, you have to show its value. So on whom should you focus and how do you engage them to maximize value? Attend this session to learn practical ways to cultivate key governance entities within your organization to ensure your Program’s long term success.

a9 How Did We get Here? Adventures in BC Planning!

Robin Loparo, Assurant Inc.

Everyone has a story… How did I get here? In this session you will learn about the journey of two business continuity planners and their “miffs” along the way. We will focus on four topics that seem to plague the BC/DR community. Do you have support? Are you complacent? Can you keep up with change? How realistic are your plans? Attendees will leave this session with tools and resources to overcome these obstacles by gaining an increased understanding on how to leverage support, maintain a culture of continuity and preparedness, how to keep up with an evolving environment and by keeping expectations realistic.

B8 Preventing Cybergeddon: Partnering With infosec to Defend Your Company

Andy Waples and Matt McNamara, Eaton Vance Management

The Cyber battlefield includes just about every facet of society – from attacks on public utilities, financial and technology firms to national defense and government data and systems. It is not a matter of “If” a firm will be hacked, but “When.” Your firm’s preparedness for responding to a hack is a key factor in limiting the scope of impact. In this interactive session, the heads of Business Continuity and Information Security at a leading Asset Management Company will bring you up-to-speed on the threat, as well as what you can do to be prepared.

C5 Recovery Orchestration – it’s Not Just for it DR Any More

Andy Mercker, Fusion Risk Management

Responding to actual crisis events rarely reflects the tabletop test or exercise. Complex simulations are cumbersome and time consuming to prepare and execute. Integrating multiple plans, coordinating multiple teams and staying on track is challenging even for the most experienced practitioners. When execution risk is high, recovery times can quickly stretch beyond business tolerances. Ideally we can simplify the process, reduce execution risk and compress recovery timelines. Learn how advanced recovery orchestration techniques deliver better simulations and more predictable outcomes during actual crisis events.

D9 Wait! Now You Want Me to Manage this Crisis?Timothy W Bonno, RGA Reinsurance CompanyWhen a crisis occurs the Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery planner is expected to effectively manage the situation “back to normal” using the resources they have at hand. Whether new or experienced in crisis management, this session will help you find ways to improve your crisis management performance.

e8 Achieving synergies: How Business Continuity Can Help and Be Helped By Operational Risk Disciplines

Beverly Schulz and Mathew Croft, Raymond James

Today’s workforce is constantly being asked to “do more with less” and to “work smarter, not harder.” This presentation will give you pointers on how to do just that, exploring how Business Continuity can help, and be helped by, other Operational Risk disciplines. The presenters will discuss how Business Continuity, Information Security, Physical Security, Supplier Risk Management, and Operational Risk can work together to provide more value to the business while expending less total effort.

g6 information technology Risk: What You Need to Know

Bill Rider, Johns Hopkins University Hospital, moderator (panel TBD)

In today’s business environment, the great risk to organizations is technology. Reputation risk, complexity risk, cyber security risk, cloud-computing risk… practitioners must refocus on these daily occurrences. Technology risk is not an isolated IT problem, there is a responsibility to help the organization overcome these challenges, regardless of your specific role. In this “non-traditional IT recovery” discussion, attendees will engage with a panel of experts to better understand the risks, its challenges, and recommendations.

a11 Obtaining Budget for Cyber Recovery

Steven Ross, Risk Masters International LLC

Cyberattacks are an omnipresent problem, but most all of the attention, product development and funding is going to prevention and detection; very little management focus is planning for recovery. This presentation offers practical solutions for recovering from cyberattacks, with a particular focus on making the case to senior management for budget to build effective recovery preparations. Attendees will learn the potential costs and the side benefits that can bolster budget demands. The session will recognize the differences of approach needed for companies of different sizes and in different industries.

B9 Black Hat Hackers and technology Created Added supply Chain Risks

James Haile, JWH Associates

The only way that the supply chain can be defended from the dreaded Black Hat Hackers is for managers to collaborate and interact with their IT Security counterparts. Today’s global supply chains rely upon the rapid and robust dissemination of data among supply chain partners, so it is critical that plans must be implemented to ensure that their company, their suppliers and their suppliers’ suppliers are following best practices in cybersecurity.

C6 social Media & #Disasters 2.0 – How to Create & implement an

D10 Reducing Risk: Managing Your third-Party Vendor Business Continuity PlansLaurie Wonders, TriZetto, a Cognizant Company

The goal of business continuity planning is to ensure resiliency, but what if your recovery comes to a grinding halt because a critical vendor does not have a tested recovery plan? Understand how to manage the risk of vendor failure by identifying who your critical vendors are, determining how to ask for, and receive, their contin-gency plan details, ensure that the negotiated contractual terms with the vendor are consistent with your recovery goals and objec-tives, and put together a vendor BCP response plan which will in-clude expected vendor deliverables, communications, implementa-tion, recovery and estimated impact to internal teams/customers.

g7 employee Preparedness: How Will Your employees Work After the Disaster?

Angela R. Gill, Educational Testing Services (ETS), Mark Armour, Brink’s Inc. and Philip Bigge, Ripcord

As we all know, if our employees are not prepared for disasters, the response and recovery of our organizations will be that much tougher. We all have a vested interest in integrating employee preparedness into all the facets of our continuity programs. Learn from a panel of leaders how other organizations are preparing their workforce as the primary driver of their program. This session will leave you with ideas for future preparedness opportunities at your organization to ensure that your most valuable asset, your employees, can be recovered.

D11 BiA Paradigm shift: ensuring success Utilizing a Value stream Approach

Christopher Duffy, Strategic BCP

Departmental recovery plans are historically based on the outcome of a Business Impact Analysis (BIA). Utilizing a Value Stream approach emphasizes business process mapping surrounded by key executive metrics, risk management, and a focus on real-time resilience. This approach empowers BC/DR managers to become leaders of transformation and to deliver unmatched value to their executives and everyday operations – far exceeding the expectations and methods of the prototypical planner.
