With the increased dependency of modern corporations on computer technology and special-purpose facilities, contingency planning is a rising priority on the agenda of senior management. This book provides cost-conscious executives with a structured process to address contingency planning needs. It provides guidance in approving and allocating funds for plan development and various methods and procedures as well as standards of performance. Chapters will be revised that reflect lessons learned from the 9/11 attack as well as natural disasters such as hurricanes Katrina and Wilma. The tentative chapters are: (1) Defining the Problem, (2) Awareness and Education, (3) Project Planning, (4) Business Impact Analysis, (5) Implementation Strategy, (6) Plan Development: The Myers Process, (7) Maintenance, Education, and Testing, and (8) Guidelines for Internal Consultants and Consulting Firms.
