How should an organization with an ERP system plan for a disaster?

What will be an ideal response?


Because an ERP system is considered to be "mission critical", it is important that some planning be done for both natural and man-made disasters. For large companies, one estimate is that they lose $13K for every minute the ERP system is down. Of course there must be some trade-off between the acceptable level of risk and the cost of getting the systems back up and running. Sometimes, companies set up alternate sites at different locations that are ready in case the original systems go down. Data backups may also be stored in multiple locations and on different media.
