PSCP Overview
The PSCP ensures that essential government services continue to be delivered during and after a disruptive incident. This dashboard facilitates the planning, analysis, and activation of continuity protocols.
Policy & Objective
Establish the continuity policy, scope, and objectives. Define the commitment of the agency to service resilience.
Risk & Impact Analysis
Identify essential functions and assess potential threats (Risk Assessment) that could disrupt operations.
Response & Recovery
Develop strategies, procedures, and the Activation Plan to restore services within the Recovery Time Objective (RTO).
Why PSCP Matters
Unlike standard emergency response which focuses on saving lives and property, Public Service Continuity focuses on the organization's ability to perform its mandate. When a disaster strikes, the public relies on the government the most. This application guides you through building a plan that ensures your agency doesn't stop working when it's needed most.
