Good configuration management identifies "who uses what". Your CMDB will have your applications, databases and the unlying infrastructure, all tied one to another. Just by adding the link of applications to clients, you have the basis for true impact assessments.

Our Business Impact Assessment service adds another layer of data to your CMDB: Criticality, Recovery Point Objective, Recovery Time Objective, and Maximum Tolerable Period of Disruption. Business continuity planning (BCP) identifies an organization's exposure to internal and external threats, and the BIA is an essential component to develop effective prevention and recovery plans.

We perform and develop business impact assessments. If desired, BIA data is added to your CMDB thus supporting your business continuity activities. Our application customization services allow you to have client-added BIA targets, thus eliminating manual input and computation of application recovery targets.

Follow this forward, where our software can compute the appropriate Risk Assessment, based on your specific criteria. The document repository can keep all of your disaster recovery plans and checklists. Rather than having "static" lists of your equipment, use the CMDB to export the accurate equipment lists and dependencies associated with your plan. Have a "living" disaster recovery plan, one that shows all of the underlying configuration items, and all the changes that have been applied to them.
