Insurance & Enterprise Risk Management
• Business Continuity is a well developed preparatory and planning method which allows an
organization to continue its operations in the event of any natural disaster or event which can lead to
the loss of facilities and utilities, unavailability of personnel, or accessibility to other resources
necessary to the organization’s operations.

Purpose
• Business Continuity planning enables a department to formulate and establish procedures aimed at minimizing the
impact of a business disruption. Departmental continuity planning procedures aim at identifying and evaluating risks,
threats, events, and various scenarios. Examples include fire, flood, storms, etc. that cause the interruption of
research, teaching, and/or business operations. The department then identifies required resources and detailed
procedures for the resumption of departmental services. A business continuity plan developed based upon this
checklist is not intended to substitute for existing University emergency protocols. The developed plan complements
and provides a means for coordination with University protocols.
