THE DRS DISASTER RECOVERY PLAN

DRS DESCRIPTION AND PHASE CONTENTS

The Recovery System (DRS) product contains a methodology for completing the recovery
planning project, which uses TAMP's Six-Phase Approach. The generically designed and
pre-formatted Recovery Plan is located within Phase IV of this methodology.

The six-phase approach is intended to provide the user with a structured recovery planning
method for analyzing, implementing and maintaining the best recovery planning program.
The following pages summarize these six phases:

PHASE I - INCEPTION: RECOGNIZING THE NEED FOR RECOVERY PLANNING.
In this Phase, you will obtain Senior Management agreement and approval to initiate this
project.

To assist you in completing this Phase, DRS provides:
(a) phase instructions; and
(b) several formats of sample project initiation interoffice letters.

PHASE II - IDENTIFICATION: DEFINING YOUR MISSION CRITICAL OPERATIONS AND
THEIR RECOVERY RESOURCES, YOUR BUSINESS IMPACTS OF A DISASTER, YOUR
PRIORITIES IN A DISASTER SITUATION, AND YOUR RECOVERY OBJECTIVES. In this
Phase, you will: identify your resources, identify your mission critical operations, functions
and automated applications, as well as their priorities; and identify the impacts that a
disaster will have on your operations. This information will then be used to identify your
Recovery Objectives.

To assist you in completing this Phase, DRS provides phase instructions and:

- a sample interoffice letter accompanied by instructions for completing "Data
Collection
Forms" and sample Data Collection Forms themselves. These include information for:
Personnel, Facilities, Vendors, Equipment, Software, Forms & Stationery, Supplies, Vital
Records, and Recovery Tasks.
- a sample interoffice letter accompanied be a "Department Questionnaire," which
you
will align and use to identify your organization's recovery requirements including its: mission
critical operations, recovery objectives, potential recovery strategies, and recovery activities
and tasks.
- a sample interoffice letter accompanied by a "Business Impact Questionnaire,"
which
you will align and use to identify your organization's business impacts of not receiving the
reports or information they need to carry out their job.
- a sample interoffice letter accompanied by a "Recovery Application
Questionnaire,"
which you will align and use to identify your organization's automated application processing
requirements. This questionnaire contains key questions which will be asked in order to
determine application criticality along with the amounts and types of resources required in
order to re-establish mission critical application processing.
- various tools to support this data gathering process, including a sample
"Recovery
Application Summary" and "Recovery Application Inventory" form.


PHASE III - DECISION: CHOOSING A RECOVERY METHOD/STRATEGY.

In this Phase, you will select the best possible method/strategy for your recovery operations.
For instance, in an automated processing recovery plan, you may not need to provide any
automated recovery measures. Or, depending on your situation, you may need to use one or
more of the several recovery methods best suitable for your environment. Some of these
are: the Stored Resources/ Equipment Method, Bilateral Aid Agreement Method,
Multilateral Aid Agreement Method, Dual Site Method, Multi-Site Method, Empty Shell
Method, Vendor-Provided Recovery Facility Method, Shared Recovery Facility Method, and
others.

To assist you in completing this Phase, DRS provides:
(a) phase instructions;
(b) descriptions of each backup and recovery method/strategy; and
various tools to
help implement your chosen recovery methods/strategies.

PHASE IV - DOCUMENTATION: DOCUMENTING THE RECOVERY PLAN.

In this Phase, you will document your comprehensive Recovery Plan.

To assist you in completing this Phase, DRS provides:
(a) phase instructions;
(b) eight major sections of a generically designed, pre-formatted and
comprehensive
Recovery Plan;
©) instructions and a sample interoffice letter to assist you in completing
the recovery
team Section 30; and
(d) a "Project Schedule Checklist", which can be used to help manage the
Plan's
development.

The sample Recovery Plan contains an easily referenced format, which will be essential
during a time of crisis. The Plan also contains: generic notification procedures; identification
and description of Recovery Teams along with each Team's detailed duties and
responsibilities; mission critical operating specifications; rebuilding/restoring specifications;
emergency procedures including generic evacuation procedures; instructions for tailoring
specific pieces to your needs and environment; plus much more.

PHASE V - PRACTICE: TRAINING THE PLAN PARTICIPANTS AND TESTING THE
RECOVERY PLAN.

In this Phase, you will prepare your Plan's Participants concerning their roles and
responsibilities for each disaster scenario. Following training, you will identify and develop
your recovery test cases, and conduct tests to demonstrate and verify your recovery and
restoration capabilities.

To assist you in completing this Phase, DRS provides phase instructions for two parts
(Training and Testing).

For the Training part, DRS provides:
(a) Training instructions;
(b) tools to assist you with Training;
