## Business disruptions have changed. Has your continuity plan?
For many manufacturers, the biggest threats today don't come from natural disasters, but instead cyber incidents, ransomware, and IT/OT disruptions that can take a business offline for weeks or even months.
**Having an up-to-date business continuity plan helps your organization:**
- Reduce production downtime
- Maintain fast communication with customers
- Define roles during crisis
- Quickly recover critical systems
- Decrease operational, financial, and reputational risk

## What's in your business continuity template:
### Assign Stakeholders and Responsibilities
Define roles across operations, IT, HR, leadership and more so teams know who owns what during a disruption.
### Set Recovery Targets and KPIs
Document recovery time objectives (RTOs), recovery point objectives (RPOs), maximum tolerable periods of disruption (MTPD), and more.
### Assess Risk Clearly
Identify likely disruption scenarios - especially cyber and IT/OT incidents - and evaluate their operational impact before they happen.
### Create a Repeatable Recovery Process
Map out how your organization will respond, recover, restore operations, and communicate throughout an incident.
### Improve Internal and External Communication
Set expectations for employee updates, leadership reporting, supplier coordination, and customer communication.
### Strengthen Cross-functional Alignment
Bring departments together under a unified plan so recovery efforts are coordinated, not siloed.
