Business Continuity Plan: Examining of Multi-Usable Framework

Abstract

Business Continuity Plan (BCP) framework is procedural guidance to create plans that prevent, prepare, respond, manage, and recover a business from any disruption. Many organizations have not realized that BCP is essential to their business continuity. Organizations more concern with their main goal (profitability and market growth), rather than business continuity. Regarding the organization awareness of business continuity, many organization recognizes disruptions, but they did not aware of preparing BCP. There were no specific standard or framework for BCP that could use as a best practice. This research is a continuation of previous research, which has proposed with a specific procedure, including all elements and activities. However, this framework still has shortcomings in testing empirical studies. This paper aims to analyze the suitability of the framework with various types of organizations. The framework has been tested in four cases: banking, 2 service-company, and manufacture. The results show that some activities of the BCP require further adjustment. Therefore, researchers need to readjust the BCP framework by changing several activities, to fit all type of organizations. Based on the results of the analysis, improvement is needed by doing some additions or subtractions of activities and elements in the framework, such as adding budgeting. This improvement aims to get a more tested framework that can be used as guidance in the future.
