Business Continuity Planning (BCP) is the standard method by which businesses plan for continuing operations in an emergency. BCP involves several steps, which include performing a Business Impact Analysis (BIA) and a Risk Assessment (RA) (also referred to as Risk Analysis).

It allows an organization to understand the degree of loss that could occur from each potential disruption.
