Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan
6. Eventual resumption of normal operations including all non-essential functions
Management Succession
In an emergency situation following a major calamity, procedures may be needed to
ensure that the Organization's remaining officers have the authority to direct immediate
recovery operations to speed the resumption of vital operations. The following specific
measures are to be implemented to maintain continuity of leadership.
Executive Succession
In the event of an emergency, the officers and employees of the Organization will
continue to conduct the affairs of the Organization under such guidance from the senior
management as may be available subject to conformance with any governmental
directives during the emergency.
Senior management shall have the power, in the absence or disability of any officer, or
upon refusal of any officer to act, to delegate and prescribe such officer's powers and
duties to any other officer or director.
If the Chief Executive Officer cannot be located or is unable to assume or continue
normal executive duties, then the authority and duties of the CEO shall, without further
action of senior management, be automatically assumed by one of the following
persons in the order designated.
Managing Director
Consulting Services Director
Director of Operations and Technology Services
Chief Financial Officer
In any emergency, all officers and employees should proceed to the Organization or to
the relocation site as appropriate. As soon as possible, the person whose name
appears highest on the succession list will become the Organization's acting Chief
Executive Officer until the arrival of someone higher on the succession list. At all times,
the available person whose name is highest on the succession list will be the
Organization's acting Chief Executive Officer.
Administrative and Other Personnel Succession
The administrative and personnel succession shall follow a similar plan where
succession for each department will flow from the Department Manager to the next
highest level employee in the department in the event the Department Manager is
unable to assume or continue normal duties.
Revision Date: February 14, 2014
