Interdependencies

The following interrelation and interdependency tasks should be carried out by the BCP team and addressed in the resulting plan:

  • Define essential business functions and supporting departments.
  • Identify interdependencies between these functions and departments.
  • Discover all possible disruptions that could affect the mechanisms necessary to allow these departments to function together.
  • Identify and document potential threats that could disrupt interdepartmental communication.
  • Gather quantitative and qualitative information pertaining to those threats.
  • Provide alternative methods of restoring functionality and communication.
  • Provide a brief statement of rationale for each threat and corresponding information.
In larger organizations, it can be helpful for each department to have its own specific contingency plan that will address its specific needs during recovery. These individual plans need to be compatible with the enterprise-wide BCP.
