Firms recognize that, for various reasons, they have to build or rebuild their disaster recovery and business continuity (BC/DR) plan and implementation. From the very beginning of this crucial undertaking, companies must consider how to: determine their needs; correlate these needs with available technologies; identify current operational gaps; and build processes and technology solutions that fit with requirements, budgets, architecture, and timelines. After this initial evaluation, the actual process of implementing the BC/DR plan and handing it over to production presents a number of potential pitfalls that firms must consider — ideally from day one — and avoid.
