Business Continuity

Stay open when the world does not.

Black Fox builds business continuity programs that survive contact with reality. We engineer the plans, exercise them, and stand them up when an event becomes a crisis.

// What We Deliver

Capabilities

Each engagement combines a small senior team with the systems, tooling, and partner network the mission demands.

01

BIA & Risk Assessment

Quantitative business impact analysis, recovery objectives, and dependency mapping aligned to ISO 22301 and NIST SP 800-34.

02

Continuity Planning

Plans, runbooks, and decision authorities built around real people and real escalation paths — not a binder no one has read since the last audit.

03

Crisis Management

Crisis-leadership coaching, communications playbooks, and a virtual EOC capability we can stand up in 24 hours.

04

Exercise & Validation

Tabletops, functional drills, and full-scale exercises that test the plan against credible threat scenarios.

// Method

How We Engage

01
Step 01

Map

Identify mission-critical processes, supply chains, vendors, and the dependencies that nobody documents until something breaks.

02
Step 02

Plan

Engineer continuity strategies for each process with named owners, alternate sites, and tested communications.

03
Step 03

Exercise

Run the plan against realistic scenarios — natural, technological, and adversarial — until it stops surprising you.

04
Step 04

Activate

On-call activation team and crisis comms support that arrive on the worst day, not the post-mortem.
