Lecture 9 - Maintaining and Improving The DRP
Lecture 9 - Maintaining and Improving The DRP
1
Introduction
• By maintaining the plan on a regular basis, the organization will avoid the time
required to create a plan from scratch and it will be prepared whenever a disaster strikes.
• The most efficient method of maintaining the plan is to present parts of the plan to those
who assisted in creating the plan initially.
• Team members should be verified, procedures and tasks re-examined by team members,
and lists (staff, vendors, customers) updated.
• Any appendices such as communications schematics and computer equipment lists
should be updated.
• Even in very large organizations, the maintenance of the plan will require a week or two
of effort a year.
