Benefits of Metrics Tracking /
Compliance Reporting
•
Well defined standards and measurements reduce subjectivity in assessing
current status
•
A repeatable measurable process demonstrates progress made in
enhancing continuity capabilities
•
Demonstrated progress can assist in gaining funding for continuity
solutions
•
Executive accountability drives home visibility and importance
•
The value proposition - information can be used for projects other than
BCP and reduce associated costs of gathering and tracking redundant data
–
mergers and acquisition, asset management, risk management, operations, risk
management, facilities, corporate security, information security, etc.
•
Provides an effective tool for internal and external audits

Compliance Reporting
•
Plan Evaluation Structure comprised of:
–
Standards
–
Criteria
–
Compliance Requirement
–
Measurement
–
Compliance Detail / Considerations
•
Assessing the Plans
–
initial assessment vs. ongoing reporting
–
80/20 split - Self Assessment / Corporate Assessment
•
Standards integrate both Business and Technical Continuity for an overall
picture
–
Each application / system is linked to a Business Continuity Plan
–
Ability to break out technical detail for reporting purposes
7
Compliance Reporting
•
Business Continuity Plan must be owned at an executive level
•
Effective Compliance / Metric Reporting should cover several levels
–
Overall Corporate Roll-up for benchmarking and trend analysis
–
Executive Management - overall plan status by executive, plan status by
standard, overall application by executive, detail status for each application
–
IT Executives – overall summary for applications supported, detail for
applications supported
–
Business Continuity Managers - plan level by standard and criteria, detail for
applications owned
•
Controls in place for ownership and accountability
–
Business Continuity Plan names and executive owner sign-off
–
Business Function names, recovery requirements, and executive owner
sign-off
–
Application names, recovery requirements, and executive owner sign-off

Plan Evaluation Structure
Business Continuity Example
•New business units can start building components of their Business Continuity Plan at the same time that the BIA is being conducted i.e. call tree, etc. •New business units may come from mergers and acquisitions
•Change of control is defined as the point in time at which State Street assumes control of the acquired business •When naming plans for business units, utilize standardized continuity plan naming convention: [Standard Text] _ [Free form Text] _ [ Locations] Ex: GLOBAL - SVCS _ BANKING SERVICES _MAO
Green:all requirements met Red:requirements not met
1.For existing business units, BIA must be conducted every 18 months with EVP review & sign-off 2.New business units must complete a BIA within three (3) months of inception and or change of control, with EVP review and sign-off and a Business Continuity Plan within six (6) months of inception 3.BIA final results should be included in plan, e.g. Appendix
2-b
Conduct a Formal Business Impact Analysis (BIA) on a Scheduled Basis and Establish a Continuity Plan
Compliance Detail / Considerations Measurement
Compliance Requirement Criteria
Standard 2
Identification and prioritization of all business functions and their recovery time
objectives.
9
Plan Evaluation Structure
Technical Continuity Example
Standard 3
Identification of all technology resources required to support business functions
i.e. applications and systems
•The business owner of an application is defined as an Executive Manager / EVP
•The business owner must approve / sign-off on recovery requirements for new applications and changes in recovery requirements for existing applications •Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is defined as the total elapsed time from the time an event is declared through the time when the business unit has complete functionality of the application, including the time to recover the application
•Recovery Point Objective (RPO) is defined as the acceptable age of the data (defined as a point in time), relative to the recovery event that is made available to the business unit when the system is recovered. For example, an application may have an RTO of 8 hours and an RPO to point of failure, which means that no data loss can occur
•Verify through your Application Support department that the Application Recovery Plan is located on “Oasis” or comparable documentation repository
Composite Applications Green: information provided
for all applications owned
Yellow: information missing
for less than 25% of applications owned
Red:information missing for
25% or more of applications owned
N/A:not applicable, do not own
applications
Individual Application Green: all information
available for a given application
Red:information missing for a
given application owned
N/A:not applicable, do not own
applications 1. Document the
following for each application owned: • Application Name • Executive Manager / EVP (Business Owner) • Recovery Time Objective in hours • Recovery Point Objective • Production location of the application* • Recovery location of the application* • Platform 2. Map each application to a business continuity plan 3-fIdentify All Applications Owned by the Executive Manager of the Plan / Business Unit and the Corresponding Recovery Information.

Getting Started
•
Create a steering / advisory committee of executives

Business and corporate support groups
•
Define, document, and communicate standards and measurements to
Business Continuity Managers and Business Executives
–
Start with a few metrics to get the process moving forward – add more later
–
Don’t need to integrate business and technology continuity metrics in first pass
–
Email announcements and workshops / training for Business Continuity Managers
–
Determine frequency of reporting
•
Define, develop, and implement controls and processes for plan and
application ownership
–
Multiple business units using an application? Primary BU funding the application owns it
•
Define, develop, and implement reports required by audience
– Corporate Roll-up, Executive Management, IT Executives, Business Continuity Managers, etc. – Provide comment capabilities on BCM reports
•
Define, develop, and implement tools to track and report on standards
– Microsoft products (Excel, PowerPoint) can be used to start; consider databases and on-line distribution
23
Getting Started
•
Gather Data
–
Use any data that has already been collected and ask for validation / changes with
executive sign-off
–
Where there is no data
•
Obtain BUSINESS plan and application ownership list by business unit
•
Jointly assess each plan and application to establish a solid baseline for reporting
with established target dates
•
As always – get sign-off
•
Provide preliminary view of reports to one or two Business Continuity
Managers and a Business Executive for feedback
•
Before sending reports to executives, preview reports to Business
Continuity Managers – make necessary modifications
•
Conduct first round of reporting and ensure executive awareness of
baseline measurement
•
Communicate ongoing maintenance process (self assessment vs.
corporate assessment)
•
Repeat!
24
Making Program and Reporting
Enhancements
•
Work with subject matter experts in developing enhancements i.e. Global
Realty, Corporate Security, Information Technology, etc.
•
Review proposed enhancements with steering / advisory committee for
feedback and approval
•
Ease into enhancements that strengthen and or increase standards,
criteria, compliance requirements, and or measurements within a plan.
Slowly eliminate partials
•
Provide enough time for Business Continuity Managers to comply with
enhancements
–
6 month lead time between announcement and compliance
•
Consider exception reporting for high risk items
•
Consider trending analysis
