The Challenge
BCP/R planning requires great effort and significant resources because it involves every person, process, and function of an organization. It presents challenges such as resource constraints, data management, regulatory compliance, vendor dependencies, supply chain resilience, crisis management and of course, cybersecurity. Taking all these things into consideration makes the challenge almost too much for many organizations due to a lack of resources, limited budget, and executive support. Additionally, most organizations don't have a Certified Business Continuity Planning (CBCP) on staff.
