🚨 When Disaster Strikes, Clarity Wins

In a crisis, ambiguity is the enemy. Disaster Recovery (DR) is about more than compliance—it’s about moving fast, with confidence, to restore what matters most.

That starts with clear, actionable recovery plans.

Our Disaster Recovery Plan Templates give you the same frameworks our team uses to help Fortune 500 companies prepare, respond, and recover from disruption—whether caused by cyberattacks, hardware failures, or major outages.

🔧 What’s in the Package: Real Plans, Not Fluff

We’ve carefully crafted this set of templates to help you jump-start your DR program—fast. These are the same assets we deploy with clients across industries, tailored for both hosted applications and third-party SaaS platforms.

You’ll receive:

✅ Application Disaster Recovery Plan Template

Perfect for on-premise, cloud-hosted, or hybrid applications that your team manages directly. This template walks through recovery procedures, team responsibilities, RTOs/RPOs, validation, and testing—all in a format built for clarity and speed.


✅ Vendor SaaS Disaster Recovery Plan Template

Ideal for applications like Salesforce, Workday, or Microsoft 365—where your team relies on the vendor’s infrastructure but is responsible for business continuity and coordination. Includes communications, vendor engagement steps, and dependency mapping.


🧩 Editable. Flexible. Yours to Customize.

Both templates are provided in Microsoft Word format and are fully editable. Plug them into your existing DR framework, adjust terminology, and align them with your own environment.

Bonus: We’ve written these to reflect best practices from ISO 22301, FFIEC, and NIST 800-53.

🧠 Built for Practitioners. Backed by Experts.

With decades of hands-on experience in disaster recovery, business continuity, and crisis leadership, we’ve seen what works—and what doesn’t.

These templates reflect real-world recoveries, not theoretical frameworks. You’re not just getting documentation. You’re getting a field-tested recovery playbook.

💡 Why Our DR Templates Are Different

  • ✅ Built from our consulting work with global brands and regulated industries
  • ✅ Designed for both technical recovery and executive visibility
  • ✅ Reflects hybrid environments—on-prem, cloud, and SaaS
  • ✅ Saves you 40–60 hours compared to starting from scratch
  • ✅ Easy to adapt, update, and operationalize

👤 Who These Templates Are For

  • IT & Infrastructure Leaders: Wanting DR plans that reflect how systems are actually architected and operated.
  • Business Continuity & Resilience Teams: Looking for ready-to-use, standards-aligned DR tools to support recovery readiness.
  • Audit & Compliance Professionals: Needing tangible evidence that DR strategies exist, are executable, and are being tested.

🛠️ How It Works

  1. Download your templates immediately after purchase
  2. Customize each plan to match your environment and systems
  3. Train & Test with your teams to operationalize and validate readiness
