📦 What’s Included in Your Download

When you purchase our Business Continuity Plan Templates, you get two powerful tools—built to drive results and accelerate program maturity:

Why it matters:
This template helps you create a focused, actionable plan that’s easy to use in a crisis and meets ISO 22301 and audit expectations.


📊 Business Impact Analysis (BIA) Template

A comprehensive, Excel-based tool to evaluate and prioritize your business processes based on time-criticality, financial/reputational impact, and recovery needs.

Includes:

  • Step-by-step instructions to guide completion
  • Worksheets for each business unit
  • Pre-defined impact categories (regulatory, operational, reputational, financial)
  • Calculators for RTO and impact scoring

Why it matters:
The BIA is the foundation of your continuity program—our template ensures you capture the right data to drive recovery priorities, strategy selection, and executive engagement.

These templates are built for resilience professionals who need to deliver value quickly:

  • Continuity managers building or maturing a BCP program
