Business Continuity & DR Test Exercise
Run one operating cycle of an existing business continuity / disaster recovery plan-testing Control (the BC/DR test control this instance attaches to, UC-BCDR-04 "tests"): plan, execute, and evaluate a BC/DR exercise against the RTO and RPO objectives, then fold the resulting gaps back into the BC and DR plans as versioned redlines — a decision-aware workflow. It consumes as declared inputs the in-force BC and DR plans (existing Policy items), the business impact analysis (BIA), and prior after-action reports; it creates an Audit item (audit_type=operational) as the definitive exercise record, and produces named deliverables: an approved exercise package, an actual-versus-target RTO/RPO scorecard, remediation findings (Issue items), and a signed-off after-action report with an indexed evidence package. In scope: scoping, running, and evaluating one scheduled or triggered BC/DR exercise for the selected in-scope systems and business services, and folding resulting gaps back into the BC and DR plans. Out of scope: real incident response, and recovery-objective (RTO or RPO) changes to systems outside the agreed exercise scope. Standalone: no upstream or downstream workflow is required; any cross-workflow linkage — for example a related incident-response or BIA-maintenance workflow — is expressed as a declared input, not a predecessor.
