As an administrator on the Human Risks platform, you are able to set up and manage different configurations for the BIA module.

Setting up Suggested Units

After creating a BIA, under the Unit section, users can add relevant units to the BIA. One option available here is "Suggested Units" which will provide the user with a list of suggested units. These suggested units can be customized by the admin user within the Organization Module.

7. Select the Division(s) it should be part of

8. Select a Unit Category. You can select between Products and Services/Processes/Activities/Resources

Depending on which one you choose the next steps might look a bit different. If you select processes you can link it to an existing product and services within you BIA. And if you select activities you can link it to existing processes within your BIA. If you select resources, you can link it to an existing activities. Note, if you select resource you have to select a Unit Type.

9. Select Properties if relevant

10. Click Create.

Now, the new unit(s) will be shown on the list with suggested units inside the BIA module if the division matches.

Additionally on the Units section from the Organization page, you can edit or delete existing units by clicking on their respective symbols.

Setting up Impact Categories and Disruption Timeline

After creating the Unit on the BIA module, you will be prompted with another window in which you have to use sliders to establish the RTO (Recovery Time Objective) and MTPD (Maximum Tolerable Period of Disruption) of the respective Unit. Both of those options can be customized by the admin user inside the Organization module.

You can edit or delete existing impacted categories by clicking on their respective symbols on the organization page.

  1. Click into the Organization module.

  2. Scroll down to Disruption Timeline

  3. Click on Create +

Setting up Suggested Plans

Inside a BIA, a user has the option to import pre-defined plans using "Suggested Plans". These suggested plans can be set up by an admin user within the Organization Module.

Set up Plan templates

In order to create new plan templates, follow the steps down below:

  1. Click into the Organization module.

  2. Scroll down to Plan Templates

  3. Click on Create +

  4. Write a Title and a Description

  5. Select a Type of Plan

  6. Include Predefined Roles if relevant.

You can go the extra step and define criteria for your plan to be linked to a unit or multiple units by selecting to which Unit Categories, Types and RTO your plan is related to. If you define these criteria, the BCP will only be suggested if there are any units inside the BIA that matches these criteria.

E.g. if you make a BCP with a unit category "product and Services" this BCP will only be suggested in a BIA if the BIA includes the unit type "product & services".

The following elements can be used to define the criteria for when the BCP should be suggested: Unit Category, RTO, Risk Categories and Types. You can select one or more depending on how specific or general you want the suggestion to be.

The new plan will be suggested inside a BIA if it matches the criteria.

You can edit or remove existing plans by clicking on their respective symbols.
