ROLES AND ASSIGNMENTS

Organizations often plan, debate and implement policies and procedures with the best intentions, but fail to monitor, update, change, refine and maintain those policies and procedures. Systems, needs, objectives, platforms and personnel constantly change, making it necessary for organizations to regularly revisit, review and revise the disaster plan and recovery policies and procedures.

Due to its critical nature, this Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan should be regularly monitored, reviewed and revised by dedicated staff. Organizations can use the roles and assignment table to define which individuals, departments and teams are responsible for specific disaster planning tasks, as well as to help ensure that staff are aware of their specific roles and responsibilities.
