Business Continuity Plan (BCP)
The documented procedures that guide an organisation in responding to a disruption and continuing or recovering critical activities.
Put the term into practice: Business continuity
A Business Continuity Plan is the practical playbook for keeping critical activities running, or restoring them, during a disruption. It names roles, communication paths, recovery steps, and the resources needed.
A plan is only credible once it has been exercised. Regular tests and drills reveal gaps and keep the plan aligned with how the organisation actually works.
