ADaM Use Cases - Business Continuity Planning
Business impact analysis (BIA) is essential in supporting the development of an organization’s business continuity plan. Its primary purpose is to identify the critical business functions within an organization; determine the impact of any interruption of these functions and evaluate the consequences such as legal, statutory, financial and the impact on clients.
The ADaM Landscape Review using the ADaM 4 A’s Principles will identify the external and internal factors which impact on each area of the organisation as well as its overall effect. This provides the information required to put in place the safeguards which will enable the organisation to maintain and control its business operations, not only in each individual area but across all the related interdependencies within the organisation. The ADaM Framework allows a progressive approach to capturing, modelling and reporting these issues.
A comprehensive analysis of the organisation’s plans takes account of the key issues of risk, cost and value for money. The investment in development and maintenance must be balanced against the risk in delivery. This approach ensures that the final solution is related directly to business objectives.
