[edit] Merging & Redirection

Please do not merge or redirect this article, as it's seperate from Business continuity planning, in that it deals with the general subject, rather than specifically the planning aspect of business continuity. -- Lee Carré 01:44, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to raise the merge with BCP issue again as the two are so closely related and this article has yet to become anything more than 1 sentence in such a long time. BCP is a well formed, full article with much more info on the subject. I reverted spam and a new planning section as it's already covered over on BCP. --Breno talk 07:23, 25 July 2007 (UTC)


I think there is a good case for coalescing all Business Continuity (BC) articles under a single heading of the same name. However, it is important to then set out that BC is very often (and I believe correctly) referred to as BC Management (BCM). Indeed, this is specifically mentioned in British Standards Institute (BSI) standard BS25999 which is the only national standard on BC anywhere in the world. As part of BCM one or more BC plans should be created and maintained. That is referred to as BC Planning (BCP). Going beyond this are other features ranging Business Impact Analysis to Recovery Options - that all exist under the umbrella of BC --Patrick56 (talk) 18:47, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
