FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
We score your business continuity plan on a range of categories including scope, objectives, stakeholders, recovery workflow, crisis management and BCP change management, and assess them against their level of completeness.
By comparing your results using a non-judgmental maturity model built from industry best practices, we can identify which level of maturity your plan falls under, and steps you could take to improve your plan further.
WIN’s BC Assessment begins with our Certified BCP Professional spending time with key people in each area of your organization to understand the unique needs of your business. We will help identify the business continuity measures you currently have in place and where there are gaps. We then compile our findings to score them against industry best practices and provide a detailed report and executive summary of key BCP findings. The assessment concludes with a presentation and discussion of our findings.
