Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BCDR)

Operational resilience in practice

Disruptions happen — from cyberattacks and data loss to power outages and supplier failure. Our Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) service helps you prepare for the unexpected, ensuring your organisation can continue operating and recover quickly.

Who it's for

Resilience isn't about avoiding disruption — it's about surviving it. Think of BCDR like a lifeboat drill: you hope you'll never need it, but if the worst happens, you'll be glad you planned ahead.

  • • Organisations that need structured plans for maintaining operations during incidents.
  • • Businesses seeking compliance with ISO 22301, ISO 27001, or DCC frameworks.
  • • SMEs wanting practical guidance to test and improve resilience without unnecessary complexity.
Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery process

What's included

Our BCDR support integrates with your backup, cloud, and communication tools, aligning with recognised frameworks such as ISO 22301 and the NCSC's Resilience Guidance. The result: clear plans, tested procedures, and the confidence to continue operating — whatever happens.

  • • Business Impact Analysis (BIA): identify critical services, dependencies, and acceptable downtime.
  • • Continuity Strategy Development: prioritised recovery solutions for systems, data, and operations.
  • • Disaster Recovery Planning: documented technical and procedural recovery processes.
  • • Recovery Time & Point Objectives (RTO/RPO): measurable targets for downtime and data loss.
  • • Integration with Backups: review of existing backup and restoration procedures.
  • • Testing & Validation: simulated exercises to ensure plans are realistic and effective.

How we work

Step 1

Assess

Conduct a Business Impact Analysis to identify what's critical and what's at risk.

Plan

Develop continuity and disaster recovery strategies tailored to your operations.

Step 3

Test

Validate plans through tabletop or live exercises.

Step 4

Refine

Update documentation and readiness procedures based on findings.

What you get

Comprehensive BCDR Plan

Roles, responsibilities, and step-by-step recovery actions.

Recovery Testing Report

Results from simulation exercises and improvement recommendations.

Alignment with Standards

Structured outputs compatible with ISO 22301, ISO 27001, and MoD expectations.

Operational Confidence

Assurance that your team can respond effectively under pressure.

Next steps on your journey

We can help you integrate your BCDR plan with broader resilience and governance frameworks:

  • • Incident Planning & Response
  • • Security Risk Assessment & Gap Analysis
  • • Policy & Governance Support
  • • Cyber Health Check

Effective BCDR planning helps protect your people, data, and reputation, while demonstrating to customers and regulators that you take operational resilience seriously. Without a tested plan, even minor incidents can cause days of downtime and lost revenue. With one, you can recover fast, communicate clearly, and maintain trust.
