- identify critical operations and services that need to be maintained;
- define management and staff responsibilities;
- outline procedure to be followed to maintain core business functions;
- outline procedures to resume services within acceptable time frames;
- allocate adequate resources for business continuity;
- institute back-up systems for the protection and recovery of data and client records;
- outline procedures to be followed to communicate information to all relevant parties; and

This last point is important because the members are explicitly responsible for ensuring that core third party suppliers have adequate business continuity plans in place.
