Business Continuity Program
Business Continuity is the ability of an organization to provide service and support for its customers and to maintain its viability following a catastrophic event. EO 1014(opens in new window) delegates the responsibility for establishing and maintaining an effective Business Continuity Program to each campus. Our campus has contracted with the Kuali Ready Foundation via the Chancellor's Office to provide an electronic process for departments to create, store and maintain their own Business Continuity Plans. The electronic Business Program is named Chico Resiliency.
Departments identified as performing essential functions for campus will be contacted by Risk Management. Risk Management will meet with each identified department to provide training and initiate the Business Continuity Planning process.Once you have met with Risk Management and have completed your Risk Assessment and Business Impact Analysis, you can begin your plan by accessing Chico Resiliency via the link below.

Please follow the "Instructions for Plan Sign-Off" in Chico Resiliency. Once your plan has been approved, it must be updated annually to reflect any key changes in personnel or departmental operations. Updates need to be signed by the department head and the Business Continuity Administrator/ Risk Manager.
