Disaster Recovery Plan Template
A disaster recovery plan for setting out how your organisation restores its operations after a disruptive incident. It covers the response and recovery team, communications, and the arrangements for recovering premises, infrastructure and business-critical functions, with a key-contacts directory.
ISO 22301 expects continuity and recovery arrangements to be documented and ready to activate. This template gives you a complete, editable disaster recovery plan to adapt to your own business and keep current alongside your continuity plan.
Built for ISO 22301 Recovery Arrangements
The plan sets out what a recovery plan needs to be usable after an incident:
- The continuity response and recovery team, responsibilities and communications
- Recovery arrangements for premises and associated services
- Restoration of infrastructure and business-critical functions, with recovery time objectives
- Emergency incident management and a key-contacts directory
What's Included in this Disaster Recovery Plan
The plan is set out in sections so recovery can be planned and activated in one document:
- 1. Overview - the purpose and scope of the plan
- 2. Responsibilities and communication - the response and recovery team and internal and external communications
- 3. Business recovery arrangements - recovery of premises and services, restoration of infrastructure, restoration of critical functions and emergency incident management, each with recovery time objectives and responsibilities
- 4. Key contacts - the response team, key suppliers, customers, utilities, emergency services, insurers and local authorities
Who Needs a Disaster Recovery Plan?
Any organisation that wants a practical plan for getting back on its feet after a serious disruption. It suits smaller businesses building recovery arrangements without a dedicated resilience or IT team, and anyone maintaining a business continuity management system aligned with ISO 22301.
Included in the ISO 22301 Business Continuity Toolkit
This form is part of the ISO 22301 Business Continuity Toolkit - the plans, registers, forms and guidance for running a business continuity management system in one download - and is included in every alphaZ ISO toolkit that covers business continuity.
Pairs with the Business Continuity Management Plan
Recovery works hand in hand with keeping going during disruption, so it pairs with the F-Q94 Business Continuity Management Plan, which sets out the response and continuity arrangements for a disruptive incident.
