About Our Services

WHAT IS Business Continuity Planning (BCP)?

Business Continuity Planning (BCP) is the disciplined process of creating systems of prevention and recovery to deal with potential threats to a company. Its primary objective is to ensure that essential business functions can continue during and immediately after a disaster or disruption.

BCP is a proactive, enterprise-wide strategy that defines the organization's tolerance for downtime and data loss:

Key BCP Metric	Definition	Importance
Recovery Time Objective (RTO)	The maximum acceptable duration of time that a critical business function can be unavailable after an incident.	Dictates the speed of recovery required for IT systems and processes.
Recovery Point Objective (RPO)	The maximum acceptable amount of data loss (measured in time) from the point of failure.	Dictates the frequency of data backups and replication required.
Business Impact Analysis (BIA)	The process of determining the potential impact of interruption to critical business functions and prioritizing them.	Directs resources to protect the most essential functions first.

Our Expertise

OUR SERVICES – Business Continuity Planning (BCP)

TCC-India provides end-to-end BCP/DR services, from foundational risk assessment to the full orchestration of recovery scenarios across all technology and operational layers:

EBusiness Impact Analysis (BIA)

Identifying all critical business functions, their dependencies (IT, personnel, facilities), and quantifying the financial and reputational impact of their interruption.

BCP & DR Strategy Development

Designing the architecture for continuity, including defining RTOs/RPOs, alternate site strategies, and data backup/replication procedures across cloud and on-premise infrastructure.

Plan Documentation & Implementation

Creating detailed, role-specific response plans (incident response, communication protocols, technical recovery steps).

Technology Disaster Recovery (DR) Integration

Ensuring high availability and failover for critical ERP systems like SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics 365, and securely backing up data from local applications like Tally and Busy.

Testing, Training & Maintenance

Conducting regular, realistic simulation exercises (tabletop and full-scale) to validate the plan's effectiveness and train personnel.

Fraud Risk & Internal Control Advisory

Conducting comprehensive fraud risk assessments, designing preventative controls, and providing forensic data analytics to detect misconduct.

Internal Audit Transformation

Redefining the Internal Audit function to be risk-focused and technology-enabled (Continuous Auditing) for higher impact assurance.

Benefits of Business Continuity Planning (BCP)

A robust BCP framework provides immediate operational security and long-term strategic credibility.

Financial Loss Prevention

Rapid recovery and minimized downtime directly limit lost sales, penalty fees, and potential litigation costs during disruptive events.

Guaranteed Regulatory Compliance

Ensures adherence to mandatory recovery objectives, resilience standards, and regulatory requirements imposed by government and industry authorities.

Enhanced Stakeholder Trust

Demonstrating a tested and documented BCP plan builds confidence among customers, investors, and the Board in the organization’s resilience.

Reduced Insurance Premiums

Well-documented and regularly tested continuity and disaster recovery plans often qualify the organization for lower business interruption and cyber insurance premiums.

Competitive Advantage

The ability to continue operations while competitors are disrupted enables the organization to protect revenue streams and capture market share during crises.

Detailed Features – Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

Our execution is focused on creating practical, robust, and technologically sound continuity plans that align with organizational complexity.

Critical Function Dependency Mapping

Utilizing data and process maps to visually chart dependencies between people, processes, applications, and technology (e.g., mapping Order-to-Cash to Dynamics 365 servers, inventory systems, and logistics partners).

BCP–DR System Architecture Design

Designing highly available and fault-tolerant architectures for mission-critical applications, including redundant database servers, geographic data replication, and cloud failover environments on Azure or AWS.

Data Backup & Restoration Protocol

Implementing automated and verified backup routines for high-volume transactional data across SAP, Oracle, Tally, and Busy systems to consistently meet defined RPO objectives.

Communication & Crisis Management Plan

Establishing off-site communication trees, media response protocols, and designated crisis management teams with clearly defined roles and decision-making authority.

Third-Party Resilience Assessment

Assessing the business continuity readiness of critical vendors and suppliers, particularly technology-integrated partners, to identify and mitigate external supply chain risks.

Regulatory Alignment

Ensuring the BCP and DR strategy complies with applicable regulatory mandates, including RBI guidelines for financial institutions and sector-specific data retention and recovery requirements.

CHALLENGES WITH SOLUTIONS

We provide proven solutions to the typical hurdles in BCP—lack of testing, organizational silos, and budget constraints.

The “Shelfware” Syndrome (Untested Plans)

Mandatory Testing & Simulation Schedule: Establishing a non-negotiable annual testing calendar (tabletop and full-scale drills) and managing execution, with results reported directly to the Board to ensure accountability.

BCP Focused Only on IT Systems

Integrated BIA & Operational Focus: Conducting a comprehensive BIA that includes non-IT dependencies such as key personnel, critical paper records, facilities, and vendor access to create a truly holistic continuity plan.

High Cost of Dedicated DR Infrastructure

Cloud-Based DR Solutions: Leveraging scalable cloud platforms like Azure and AWS to design pay-as-you-go disaster recovery environments that meet RTO/RPO objectives without heavy upfront capital investment.

Data Inconsistency Across Systems

Data Reconciliation Protocols: Designing verification procedures to ensure recovered data across SAP, Tally, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 is synchronized and consistent post-failover, preventing financial and reporting discrepancies.

Lack of Employee Readiness

Role-Specific Training & Incident Management Portal: Delivering targeted training on communication and incident response, supported by a simple, accessible portal containing critical BCP information for all relevant staff.
