Business Continuity Planning in the Covid19 Era

Have you checked out my series of 6 weekly blog posts on CoVID19 Business Continuity ? 
The data required for this type of planning is often sourced from dozens of different solutions. Data on people and process. Data on applications. Data on systems, equipment, customers, suppliers. A mechanism capable of bringing this data together to create composite views is no longer a luxury. It is a necessity.

The Need For Adaptive Recovery - If a company isn’t agile enough, it will fail. Even if it survives the “first wave”, there’s no guarantee that it will survive the potential next, as conditions may be completely different. Adaptive Recovery is about enabling organizations to use data to adapt to the "new normal" and whatever new normal the world throws at us in the future.
Assembling Critical Information For Decision-Making   -  Listen to and understand what the insights are saying, and communicate how triaged efforts were focused. Partnerships between the BOD, CXO Suite and the Analytics team depend upon transparency during this critical time. 

Succession Planning in the CoVID19 Era - How transparent is your organization's succession plan? Are your data and systems actively working to help formalize this process? 

People Impact Analysis -  Leading your company through this crisis isn't just about adjusting to new work from home routines or laying plans for sanitizing your facilities. It will also be about leading people through significant cultural shifts.

Prioritizing Policies and Procedures - How well are you able to track compliance with procedures in your organization? Are the actions of your employees in line with the companies values? How robust is your business continuity plan? 

Innovation, Disruption, Innovation - What changes will your organization need to consider and implement to stay abreast of the social changes from this pandemic to maintain a viable Business Continuity Plan? How will you communicate these transparently and openly? How well are you able to associate the interactive impacts your BCP plan within your organization?
