Businesses today place increasing trust in their computer systems
to keep their company operating smoothly, it is becoming more and
more important that these computer systems are running all of the
time. BCS (Business Continuity Services) is a subset of EngenuIT's
Advisorship services, focusing on the
planning, implementation and maintenance of solutions that will
ensure that the computer systems of a business are always functioning
within the allowable parameters of downtime.
What is Allowable Downtime?
Downtime varies from business to business, your threshold
for allowable downtime correlates directly to the core purpose of
your company. For example, a brokerage firm that buys and sells
stocks throughout the day has a very low tolerance for downtime;
however, a construction company (for example) may be able to operate
a day or two on a paper-based system.
