Exploring Information Systems for Business Continuity Planning in IT-Driven Organizations Post-Pandemic: Insight into Enhancing Future Resilience

Author(s) Sunish Vengathattil
Country United States
Abstract Business continuity management provides holistic and proactive approaches for businesses to effectively manage the potential disruption caused by unforeseen events. Despite the benefits, most organizations are reluctant to adopt effective systems for BCP due to implementation technicalities, complacency, lack of tools and resources, and lack of training. This explorative study leverages case studies to examine and critically analyze how information systems can be leveraged to create, test, execute, and maintain BCPs in IT-driven companies. The case studies focus on the information systems leveraged by a purposively selected sample of Fortune 500 companies. The chosen companies include Walmart, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Toyota, General Motors, and IBM. The diversity and credibility of the findings are enhanced by incorporating systems used by a selected sample of large IT-driven companies not listed in the Fortune 500 list. The recommended strategies for using systems to reduce the cost of BCP include adopting cloud-based solutions, automation, virtualization, risk assessment, and standardization. The recommendations to educate organizations on the risks of operating without robust BCPs include awareness campaigns, real-world case studies, compliance requirements, and financial incentives. Implementing the proposed strategies enables organizations to leverage cost-effective, scalable, and reliable information systems to automate BCPs and operations, enhancing competitiveness and resilience to disruptions.
