Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery

We help you develop business continuity plans (BCP) so your organisation can maintain or quickly resume critical functions during and after a disruption. We support business impact analysis (BIA), identification of critical processes and dependencies, recovery objectives (RTO, RPO), and documented response and recovery procedures so you have a clear playbook. We work with your business and IT teams to align BCP with your risk appetite and can support plan testing and maintenance so your BCP stays current.

We help you define and document disaster recovery (DR) strategy so your IT systems can be restored within acceptable time and data loss limits. We support DR strategy development, RTO and RPO definition, recovery tiering (which systems recover first), and design of DR solutions (backup, replication, failover) so your strategy is implementable. We can produce DR plans and runbooks and support regular testing so you are prepared for a real incident.

We help you establish crisis recovery planning so you can coordinate response and recovery when a major incident occurs. We support crisis management structure (roles, escalation, communication), incident response and recovery procedures, and integration with BCP and DR so technical and business recovery are aligned. We can facilitate tabletop or simulation exercises so your team is ready to execute when needed.

We help you design and implement backup infrastructure and data protection so your data is backed up reliably and can be restored when needed. We support backup strategy (scope, frequency, retention, off-site and immutable copies), platform selection and deployment (on-premises, cloud or hybrid), and backup monitoring and testing so you have confidence in restores. We align with compliance and security requirements (e.g. encryption, access control) and can support recovery testing and runbook development so your team can restore quickly in an incident.

We help you implement data replication and recovery systems so you can recover data and systems within tight RPO and RTO. We support replication design (synchronous, asynchronous, application- or storage-level), replication topology (e.g. to a DR site or cloud), and recovery procedures and automation so failover or restore is repeatable and tested. We work with your databases, storage and applications to implement replication that fits your recovery objectives and can support regular DR tests so you validate recovery capability.

We help you design and implement high availability (HA) architecture so critical systems remain available during component or site failures. We support HA design (redundant components, clustering, load balancing, no single points of failure), technology selection and implementation, and monitoring and failover procedures so your systems meet availability targets (e.g. 99.9% or higher). We work with applications, databases and infrastructure (including cloud) and can align HA with your DR strategy so primary and recovery environments are consistent.

We help you implement failover systems and redundancy so that when a component or site fails, traffic or workload fails over to a standby with minimal disruption. We support active-passive and active-active designs, failover automation and testing, and network and DNS failover so users and systems reconnect to the available environment. We work with your RTO and RPO to choose the right level of redundancy and failover (e.g. hot standby, warm standby, backup restore) and can support regular failover tests so you know it works when you need it.
