RecoveryAssure

Your BIA says what the business needs. RecoveryAssure tells you whether you can actually recover.

A deterministic engine tests every recovery requirement against the technology, people, suppliers, and test evidence you already record. The engine is authoritative; AI is used only for interpretation, and every claim is traceable to the source cell it came from.

The problem

Most BCM tools store RTOs, dependencies, strategies, tests. But inconsistencies can remain hidden.

A recovery-time target of four hours on paper does not mean the application can be recovered in four hours. Suppliers, staffing, workarounds, and test evidence often quietly contradict the documented requirement. Auditors and regulators want defensible answers — spreadsheets alone cannot provide them.

What we analyse

The full stack of recovery evidence, one deterministic run.

BIA quality

Twenty deterministic rules validate coherence and credibility of your BIA data.

Dependency conflicts

Upstream / downstream RTAs are tested against every process they support.

Recovery capability

Nine-dimension feasibility model per process, separating claimed from demonstrated evidence.

Staffing & people

Minimum-staff, key-person, cross-training checks — not just headcount totals.

Workarounds

Duration, capacity, tested-status, and MBCO coverage evaluated as a bridge, not a substitute.

Suppliers

Contractual recovery targets compared against the process RTO of every dependent business function.

Demonstrated test results

Latest DR test evidence is the source of truth — stale or missing tests degrade confidence explicitly.

How it works

Four steps from BIA workbook to defensible recovery assurance.

  1. 1

    Import your BIA data

    XLSX, CSV, or JSON. Read-only, data-only ingest — macros and OLE content are rejected before parsing. Ambiguous units are surfaced, never silently interpreted.

  2. 2

    Deterministic analysis

    Twenty code-defined rules run against every process. Feasibility is derived from nine dimensions with explicit workaround bridges. Nothing is generated by an LLM.

  3. 3

    AI interpretation (labelled)

    Where AI is used for phrasing recommendations or explaining findings, its output is labelled INFERRED and rejected if it contradicts the deterministic result.

  4. 4

    Human review with evidence

    Every claim traces back to the source cell. Runs are immutable and content-hashed. Auditors and regulators get a defensible artefact, not opinions.

Differentiation

Not another BCM platform.

RecoveryAssure works with the BCM information you already have — spreadsheets, application catalogues, DR test records — and answers the question that BCM platforms leave to auditors: does the recovery you documented actually hold up?

  • Deterministic engine — every finding is code-defined and versioned.
  • Immutable analysis runs — content hashed, reproducible byte-for-byte.
  • Content-hashed audit receipts — tamper-evident, exportable to auditors.
  • Transparent methodology — the pipeline is public and documented.
  • AI is labelled and constrained — it never overrides the engine.
Who this is for

Regulated enterprises and the consultants who serve them.

Enterprises with existing BCM

Financial services, healthcare, utilities, and critical infrastructure operators who already run a BCM programme and need defensible answers to the question of whether recovery actually holds up.

BCM consultants

Practitioners engaged to review, remediate, or audit a client's business continuity programme — RecoveryAssure produces the evidence trail your engagement report can cite.

Trust

Every finding is defensible. Every fact is traceable. The engine, not the AI, is authoritative.

RecoveryAssure separates BIA quality from recovery feasibility, and both from validation confidence. Deterministic and AI outputs are rendered in different visual layers so a reviewer never confuses interpretation with truth.
