Why is it important to consider every division and department in a business continuity plan?

It is important to consider every division and department in a business continuity plan because each area of the business plays a crucial role in its overall functioning. Ignoring any department could lead to gaps in the plan, potentially causing disruptions in the event of a crisis. By considering every division and department, you ensure that all roles and functions are accounted for, thereby creating a comprehensive and effective plan.

Question was asked on:

Once BIA and any gap analyses are ready, create your business continuity plan. "Initially, the team should create a draft document, and then they can present it to the senior executives who have to sign off on it," Elsey says. When it comes to a business continuity plan, no area of your business should be ignored. According to Elsey: "Consideration and review should move through the entire company, including every division and into each department, role and function."
