Disaster Recovery Design


Translate Your Business Continuity Strategy into Disaster Recovery Tactics

Disasters can happen to anyone, and they’re hard to predict. An organization that’s hit by a disaster can face financial crisis in the time it takes to restore critical business systems. Disaster recovery solutions help your organization establish a plan to restore those systems faster. Implementing a disaster recovery solution is a hurdle in itself. Designing a disaster recovery solution that’s comprehensive and resilient isn’t easy.

Connection’s Disaster Recovery Design Service helps organizations shape disaster recovery plans that are effective and reliable. Connection also helps your organization shape a governance plan with the goal of ensuring that your disaster recovery plan is regularly updated, so it continues to be effective over time.
Connection’s Disaster Recovery Design begins with an assessment of your current environment, including an inventory of your current IT applications and infrastructure. Connection then produces a Disaster Recovery Design Plan that takes into account your stakeholders’ needs, your infrastructure, and your unique operating environment. The plan also includes guidance on governance, so your organization has a strategy to maintain your Disaster Recovery Plan once it’s in place.

Connection’s Disaster Recovery Design helps your organization:

Companies with large IT investments (typically enterprises) have the most work to do when it comes to disaster recovery planning. But mid-market and small businesses need to consider their disaster recovery plans, too. Connection’s Disaster Recovery Services are a great fit for organizations of any size that need to minimize downtime.

What Is Connection’s Disaster Recovery Design?

Connection’s Disaster Recovery Design is conducted in three phrases:

Discovery

Discovery

Connection works with you to identify key personnel overseeing your business functions, in addition to gathering any documentation related to business continuity planning (including out-of-date business continuity documents, floor plans, and facility emergency plans). To better understand your facilities and personnel, Connection holds workshops with your stakeholders, focusing on existing mitigation, contingency, restoration, and emergency management processes and personnel. Connection finishes this phase by sharing one document with all gathered information and documentation with you.
Analysis

Analysis

Connection analyzes data gathered from the workshops and documentation. Connection also examines your organization’s regulatory, compliance, industry, and best practice requirements. Connection then produces a draft Business Continuity Plan.
Discovery

Reporting

Connection produces a final Business Continuity Plan, incorporating your feedback and delivering full findings and recommendations for: future emergency management processes, personnel, and communication methods; mitigation strategies; contingency strategies; restoration strategies; facility management plans; training plans; and testing processes and schedules. Connection can also deliver an on-site presentation.
