Business Continuity Plan Tabletop Testing Exercise

Determine your company’s ability to recover quickly from an unexpected disruption with a Business Continuity Plan Tabletop Testing Exercise.

Overview

A Business Continuity Plan Tabletop Testing Exercise (BCP TTE) gives you examples of how your management team could work together to get your organization through a disaster.

These exercises help work out any kinks in your existing plan, and also serve as a reminder that these events can happen at any time, often rapidly and without warning. Also, no Business Continuity Management (BCM) plan can be considered fully reliable until it has been tested. A series of robust and realistic exercises can help identify issues and any assumptions that need attention.

Exercises can take many forms, including technical tests, desktop walk-throughs and full, live exercises. The key element to consider is the role of people and their strengths, including skills, knowledge, management and decision-making.
