An organization is permanently transitioning from onsite to fully remote business operations. When should the existing business impact analysis (BIA) be reviewed?
A.
At least one year after the transition
B.
As soon as the new operating model is in place
C.
During the next scheduled review
D.
As soon as the decision about the transition is announced
While reviewing the BIA as soon as the decision about the transition is announced (Option D) may seem proactive, it may be premature as the actual impact and implications of the transition may not be fully understood until the new operating model is implemented. Therefore, reviewing the BIA as soon as the new operating model is in place (Option B) is the most appropriate timing for ensuring that the analysis accurately reflects the organization's remote business operations.
The existing Business Impact Analysis (BIA) should be reviewed **as soon as the decision about the transition is announced** (Option D). This is because the BIA is a critical component of an organization's business continuity process that assesses potential effects of an interruption to the organization's operations. The sooner the BIA is reviewed and updated to reflect the new operating model, the better prepared the organization will be to manage the transition and mitigate any potential risks or impacts. It's important to note that the BIA should continue to be reviewed and updated regularly as the organization evolves.
The existing Business Impact Analysis (BIA) should be reviewed when there are significant changes in the business operations, such as a permanent transition from onsite to fully remote operations. In this case, option B, "As soon as the new operating model is in place," is the most appropriate choice.
Reviewing the BIA as soon as the new remote operating model is in place will help ensure that the organization's business continuity and disaster recovery plans are aligned with the new way of conducting business. It allows for the identification and assessment of potential risks and impacts associated with the remote work environment, enabling the organization to make necessary adjustments and updates to its continuity strategies and plans.
option D, "As soon as the decision about the transition is announced," may seem like a reasonable time to start planning for the BIA review, it's essential to wait until the new operating model is actually in place to gather real-world data and assess the specific impacts of the remote work setup. Option C, "During the next scheduled review," might not align with the urgency of addressing the changes brought about by the transition to remote operations. Option A, "At least one year after the transition," could lead to delayed risk assessment and planning, which may not be ideal for ensuring business continuity in the new remote work environment.
