The three pillars of Resilience Planning Accelerators
Our solution areas were built to integrate into an end-to-end framework to accelerate your business transformation.
Leadership commitment and vision
Resilience is not merely a tactical initiative but a strategic imperative. It requires unwavering commitment from top leadership, who must champion the RPA's implementation, articulate a clear vision for organizational resilience, and foster a culture that values adaptability and preparedness.
Collaborative governance and cross-functional engagement
Resilience is a shared responsibility that transcends organizational silos. Establishing a collaborative governance structure and engaging stakeholders across functions is crucial for ensuring the RPA's effectiveness.
Data-driven insights and continuous improvement
The RPA's success hinges on the ability to leverage data-driven insights to inform decision-making and continuously improve resilience capabilities.
Our approach
Phase 1 — Baseline
Phase 1 — Baseline
Phase 1 — Baseline
This phase focuses on gaining a comprehensive understanding of the organization's resilience landscape and formulating a strategic roadmap.
Identify critical services: Begin by pinpointing the business-critical applications and services that need continuous availability. These are the ones that, if disrupted, would cause significant financial loss, operational disruption, or damage to your reputation.
Refine recovery objectives: For each critical service, validate your Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO). The RTO is the maximum acceptable downtime, while the RPO is the maximum acceptable data loss in case of a disruption.
Inventory IT environment: Document your IT infrastructure, including hardware, software, network configurations, and dependencies between systems. This provides a clear picture of what needs to be protected.
Gap analysis: Assess your current DR capabilities against your defined RTOs and RPOs. Identify any gaps that need to be addressed by Continuity Patrol.
Resource planning: Determine the resources required for implementation, including hardware, software licenses, and personnel.
Phase 2 — Blueprint
Phase 1 — Baseline
Phase 1 — Baseline
This phase centers on translating the resilience strategy into actionable plans and implementing the necessary solutions and processes.
Install and configure: Deploy Continuity Patrol in your environment. This may involve installing software agents, configuring network connections, and setting up monitoring dashboards.
Service mapping: Map your critical services within Continuity Patrol. This involves defining the components of each service, their dependencies, and their recovery procedures.
Recovery automation: Configure automated recovery procedures for each service. This might include failover to a backup site, restarting applications, or restoring data.
Testing and validation: Thoroughly test the recovery procedures to ensure they meet your RTO and RPO requirements. This may involve simulated failures, failover testing, and data restoration exercises.
Phase 3 — Beyond
Phase 1 — Baseline
Phase 3 — Beyond
This ongoing phase focuses on maintaining and enhancing the organization's resilience posture through continuous monitoring, testing, and improvement.
Continuous monitoring: Use Continuity Patrol's dashboards to monitor the health and availability of your critical services in real time.
Alerting and reporting: Configure alerts to notify you of potential issues or breaches of your RTO/RPO targets. Generate regular reports on system availability and performance.
Regular reviews: Periodically review your recovery plans and configurations to ensure they remain aligned with your business needs and evolving IT environment.
Optimization: Continuously optimize your recovery procedures to minimize downtime and data loss. This may involve fine-tuning automation scripts, improving network performance, or upgrading hardware.
