Business Continuity Impact Calculator

Assess business continuity impact

When disruption strikes, you need to know which functions to recover first, and that comes from an impact analysis. This tool assesses business continuity impacts and recovery priorities, so a plan is grounded in what matters most.

Why impact analysis sets priorities

Not everything can be recovered at once after a disruption, so a continuity plan must prioritise, and the basis for prioritising is how much impact the loss of each function causes over time. A business impact analysis assesses this: which functions are critical, how quickly their loss hurts, and what the acceptable downtime is. That drives the recovery order and the targets, so effort goes first to what would cause the most harm if it stayed down. Without this analysis, a continuity plan is guesswork, and the wrong things get recovered first while critical functions wait.

A tool, not advice
