Creating a Disaster Recovery Plan Has Never Been Simpler

Posted By on July 12th, 2019

Today is National Simplicity Day – a day for getting back to basics and looking at, and for, a simpler way of doing things.

At First Recovery we are big believers in simplifying things for our customers – our service is designed to provide simplicity in a time of need for your business. If disaster should affect your business, as specialists in supporting small and medium sized businesses we will be there for you.

Our service aims to get your business back up and running as quickly as possible. Within 24 hours of a disaster – such as fire or flood for example, we can relocate you in a temporary office equipped with an IT network, phone and email capabilities.

Another area we can help with is your disaster recovery planning. We appreciate it can be an overwhelming task. Where do you start with questions like:

  • What disaster events should I consider as a threat?
  • Which systems are critical to the continuity and running of my business?
  • How would I communicate to my customers, clients or suppliers if I am unable to operate?

That is why we give all our customers access to the BRIO tool (Business Recovery Information Online) – an online disaster recovery planning tool.

Our recent blog talks you through a step by step guide to using the BRIO system from areas such as

  • Registering your business
  • The types of information you need to add to your disaster recovery plan
  • Allocating roles and information to different staff
  • How to use the BRIO app

The BRIO tool also gives you the option of completing a readiness questionnaire. With simple (did we say we liked to keep things simple?) yes or no answers, completing the questionnaire will help you understand how your business would fare if faced with a disaster. Once you know where you are, it can help with simplifying the creation of your disaster recovery plan.
