A business impact analysis (BIA) is a process that identifies and evaluates the potential effects of disruptions to critical business operations as a result of a disaster, accident or emergency. A BIA should include an inventory of relevant business processes that support the organization’s strategic objectives and are essential for its continuity. The inventory should also identify the dependencies, interdependencies, recovery priorities and time frames for each business process. Policies for business procurement, documentation of application configurations and results of business resumption planning efforts are not as useful as an inventory of relevant business processes for performing a BIA.
