July 18, 2011 - PRLog -- Franklin CIO Services, LLC, a professional services firm that assists small and medium sized businesses to improve profits by way of improved processes and technology usage and then validates improvements with meaningful metrics  has created a Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan (DR/BCP) Evaluation Scorecard. The Scorecard is a series of twenty-five questions with simple yes or no answers. The answers result in a score that provides a quick assessment of how effectively a company is prepared to mitigate risk or resume business in the event of a data or site loss.
For example, one of the questions on the IT Assessment is, “Are backup and recovery procedures reviewed and tested regularly?” Spencer Silk Partner at Franklin CIO said, “Many companies back up data, but never test to see if data can be recovered from the media. A 'no' answer suggests that additional disaster survival planning is needed.”
The Assessment takes a snapshot of a company's preparedness to survive a data loss or a loss of a site. It is simple yet effective and can be completed in a matter of minutes. Anyone wanting a copy of the Scorecard or to discuss their score can contact Franklin CIO.
