“ We have relied on Engage to develop, maintain and
improve the CalPERS disaster recovery strategy and plan and we are extremely confident that this plan will mitigate
our risks should we face a disaster”.

Employees Retirement System (CalPERS)
“The CalPERS Disaster Recovery Plan is head and
shoulders above those submitted by other State Agencies.
This is the most comprehensive plan submitted and evaluated
as a plan that would fully and systematically recover the
agency”.

Business Continuity Planning (BCP)
Engage BCP services help customers develop continue business operations plan that will clearly identify mission critical business functions, their risk,
their impact and their recovery strategy.
Engage Business Continuity Planning methodology addresses 10 key criteria categories.
The criteria categories are organized into a 3-tier hierarchy of required and recommended practices.
Tier 1 criteria are required, Tier 2 is strategy and Tier 3 is practices.
Customer BCP requirements are phased in over an acceptable time.
Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP)
While an effective disaster recovery plan is a necessary component to an effective business continuity strategy, disaster recovery is not the end-objective.
DRP help customers balance the art of a correctly crafted business continuity plan with that of an effective disaster recovery plan to clearly identify mission critical business functions, their resources, their processes,
and the impact IT will have on those processing.
Operational Recovery Plan (ORP)
The staff of an enterprise represents, arguably, the most critical resource.
In that regard, one strategy, much like that for alternate facility, hardware and software,
is to develop plans for total replication of staff, and in a manner similar to,
the plans put in place for physical plant, hardware and software.
Engage ORP services help customers to clearly identify mission critical business functions resources, their processes,
the impact IT will have on their processes and their work recovery facility strategy.
Work Recovery Facility (WRF)
Engage provides the support and address the need for alternative workspace
should your primary place of business be uninhabitable due to a short or long-term disaster.
Many elements must be considered to provide an effective and complete set of processes and infrastructure
to assure the maximum probability of continuous business operations in the face of disaster.
