Companies without a disaster recovery plan face average downtime costs of $5,600 per minute, according to Gartner.

Stay resilient with a tested continuity and recovery plan

Unexpected disruptions, whether from cyberattacks, natural disasters, or system failures, can cripple operations, damage reputation, and lead to significant financial loss. Many organisations lack a tested continuity plan, leaving them vulnerable to prolonged outages and data loss. Without a robust strategy, recovery can take days instead of hours, impacting customer trust and compliance. Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) planning ensures your organisation stays resilient, minimises downtime, and recovers quickly when the unexpected happens.

Your safeguard against disruption and unexpected business risks

Our experts start by assessing your critical systems, processes, and risk exposure. We then design a tailored continuity and recovery strategy aligned with your business priorities. Using advanced tools, cloud-based backup solutions, and proven frameworks, we implement resilient systems and conduct regular testing to ensure readiness. This proactive approach guarantees rapid recovery, minimal disruption, and peace of mind—so your business can keep moving forward, no matter what. Business continuity planning is part of our IT consulting services.

Our senior consultants work closely with the stakeholders in your organisation to develop a comprehensive BCP. Our approach is to establish a ‘living’ plan that is easily updated as internal and external factors change in and around the business.

Business continuity in the cloud

The cloud has created a landscape for businesses to effectively establish agile, mobile and scalable IT solutions. While in the past, data and systems were most often centralised on local hardware, the dispersed nature and multi-vendor approach to cloud presents opportunities as well as challenges for business continuity.

We work with your team to use the cloud to enhance business continuity and, more critically, to address often ignored factors of cloud utilisation.

“Every hour of downtime can cost businesses thousands—planning is critical.” — Gartner

“Organisations with tested recovery plans reduce outage impact by 90%.” — Forrester

Business continuity planning FAQs

What does Business Continuity Planning include?

Comprehensive Risk and Impact Assessment, Customised Continuity and Recovery Strategy, Cloud Backup and Data Replication Solutions, Regular Testing and Plan Optimisation, Defining a disaster and Identifying critical IT and business systems. Scope is confirmed per client after the assessment.

Who is Business Continuity Planning for?

Ensure business continuity and rapid recovery when disruptions strike unexpectedly. If you are not sure whether it applies to you, the free assessment will tell you either way, including if the answer is no.

What happens after we enquire?

We book a free 30-minute assessment. We map the relevant part of your environment, then send a written summary of the risks, gaps and a prioritised plan, including anything you should not spend money on. There is no cost and no obligation to engage us.

Do we need to take a full managed agreement?

No. This service can be engaged on its own, or folded into a broader managed agreement if that turns out to suit you better. Most clients start with one area and expand once the relationship is proven.

How is this priced?

Pricing is set per engagement, because scope and environment size vary widely. We give you a written figure after the assessment rather than a range up front that we would have to revise.

Can you work with our existing IT team?

Yes. A large part of our work supplements in-house teams rather than replacing them, adding capability they do not have or capacity they cannot hire for.
