Alpha Investment Services (AIS) wants to have Business Continuity Plan. 1. If a Disaster occurs, how important is the fact that there are two building locations? 2. If the Main Building is destroyed; highlight the initial major business continuity steps to be taken. 3. If the Auxiliary Building is destroyed; highlight the initial major business continuity steps to be taken. 4. If both the Main Building and the Auxiliary Building are destroyed; highlight the initial major business continuity steps to be taken. 5. Under the crisis event described in A-10.5, can the Recovery Time Objectives be met? 6. AIS management is considering moving the organization to Southern California. There would be only one office building for all operations. The building is to be of modern design and construction. Essentially the flood, tornado, and severe winter storm risks have been replaced with the earthquake risk; all other significant risks are essentially the same. Although not located directly on a fault line, earthquakes are a very serious concern. If a Disaster occurs from an earthquake: describe the major business continuity response steps to be taken and determine if the Recovery Time Objectives can be met.
