Objective

The purpose of this document is to help businesses conduct a Business Impact Analysis (BIA), which identifies the business’s critical processes, required resources for each process and the order in which processes need to be recovered.  This document provides guidance on how to conduct the BIA, analyze the information that is collected, and report the findings of the assessment.  The following documents are available to help the business complete the assessment:

  • Business Impact Analysis Template (both short and long versions)
  • Application & Data Criticality Template
  • Final Business Unit Report Template
  • Final Executive Management Report Template
  • Examples of Impact

The Business Impact Analysis is only a part of the overall Business Assessment.  A Business Assessment is separated into two constituents, Risk Assessment and Business Impact Analysis (BIA).  The Risk Assessment is intended to measure present vulnerabilities to the business’s environment, while the Business Impact Analysis evaluates probable loss that could result during a disaster.  To maximize the Business Impact Analysis, a Risk Assessment should also be completed. 

Note: We offer 7 days money back guarantee to all USA companies. If you purchased templates without seeing samples and you are dissatisfied with our product, you will receive a full refund if you cancel your purchase & return the product within 7 days of buying the templates.
