In the GPG 7.0 structure used by CBCI 7.0, Analysis (PP3) covers the Business Impact Analysis (BIA) and Risk Assessment, producing requirements such as priorities, resource needs, and recovery targets. Once those requirements are understood, the next step is Solutions Design (PP4)—selecting and designing strategies and solutions that can meet the recovery requirements (e.g., meeting RTOs, securing resources, reducing single points of failure).

That sequencing is why option B is correct: after analysis, you identify strategies and solutions for resuming/continuing operations. Option A (governance) is established earlier as part of setting up the BCMS framework. Option C is part of the analysis stage itself, not the next stage. Option D (operational plans) aligns more with Enabling Solutions (PP5), where solutions are implemented and supported by response structures and plans.
