TAMP's Turnkey Planning Service

TAMP provides a turnkey planning solution, in which we manage and complete the planning process for our clients. This is an excellent alternative for companies that need to focus on their core business responsibilities.

Our 6-phase project methodology and toolset has been proven extremely effective time and time again. Here's a brief:

Phase I - Foundation. Utilizing proven techniques and tools, we establish a solid foundation, which is essential to the success of a BCM project.

Phase II - Identification. In this phase, we identify and gather the information required for the project. For most BCM projects, we accomplish a risk/threat assessment, business impact analysis (BIA), supply chain impact analysis, etc. Among other data, we identify resource and dependency information as well as the maximum allowable downtimes (MADs), recovery time objectives (RTOs) and recovery point objectives (RPOs).

Phase III - Decision. Armed with the knowledge we have gathered in the Identification phase, we're now able to recommend the recovery strategies that will achieve the recovery and continuity objectives. We also pre-determine who will do what and how; and create the recovery team scheme. Along with several other important decisions, we analyze and report on gaps in areas such as the supply chain, desired verse achievable MADs, RTOs and RPOs, etc.

Phase IV - Documentation. The information gathered and the decisions made are documented in a readily-usable format so that the resulting Plans are of value in time of crisis. Easily reference-able and comprehensive Plan manual(s) as well as "Wallet Card Plans" are developed and delivered in this phase.

Phase V - Practice. Most people think that the job is done when the Plans are published. Your Plans will be valuable only if your staff knows how to use them and what to do in the event of a disaster. Therefore, we train plan participants on how to use the Plans, what they should do in a disaster situation, and on their roles and responsibilities for continuity of operations. Most importantly, we also manage an exercise/test to help ensure that your Plans will work in a disaster situation in this phase.

Phase VI - Maintenance. Continuity planning is a living process. Your organization, its needs and its resources are dynamic. Your Plans must keep pace with your organization's changes. In this phase, we make our clients self-sufficient and provide the tools to ensure that the Plans are kept up-to-date. The DRS planning software manages our client's business continuity management information and eliminates the manual efforts to keep Plans current.
