ITPEC IP October 2024 — Question 66 of 100

The BCP should name an alternate office, identify priority work, and define procedures for continuing it after destruction of the head office. Business continuity planning prepares the organization to sustain or rapidly restore critical operations under severe disruption. An alternate command location and prearranged transfer of essential functions directly address the loss scenario.

Answer (c)

Why not others:
- (a) fire prevention reduces damage likelihood but does not explain how business continues after total destruction

- (b) waiting for instructions from an unavailable head office can stop every site and defeats continuity

- (d) insurance transfers financial impact, while planning only an equivalent future building does not provide an immediate operating procedure

Key rule: A BCP prioritizes critical activities and predefines people, locations, resources, authority, and procedures for operation during disruption.
