Businesses irrespective of their size—small, medium or large scale—are vulnerable to calamities caused by nature, humans or due to accidents. Any disaster can hamper the smooth functioning of a business. Modern day world is complicated by its innumerable vulnerabilities and uncertainties that it faces while commencing day to day activities. The risk faced by businesses are largely influenced by intensely competitive market forces including the ever-growing demand that compels enterprises to procure business risk analysis, disaster recovery, and business continuity plan.

Integrating disaster recovery planning into normal IT operations considerably reduces the probability of extended system breakdowns in a disaster. In the overall IT management scenario, disaster recovery plan gives more clarity on when to invoke disaster recovery procedures, rather than taking unnecessary troubleshoot procedures to suffocate the situation. Also, to minimize the damage caused by the unforeseen forces, it is absolutely necessary for enterprises to have a conceived plan in place to anticipate potential problems and accordingly deploying solutions with the utmost substance. 

The best possible way to integrate disaster recovery plan and the IT service management is by conducting business impact analysis. It prioritizes the components of the IT system to determine the systems that are mission-critical, important or not important for day-to-day operations. Therefore, implementing concise, easy to scan and effective disaster recovery plan with visual-based documentation are crucial for enterprises for a successful disaster recovery.
