With the impacts of COVID 19 now starting to affect businesses around the world, some organisations are presently facing the very real prospect of restricting their operation.
To limit the fallout to your business and help focus your finite resources and $, you need to identify what your Critical Business Functions (CBF) are and what impact the business will suffer should you be unable to continue to support them. This process will help you identify essential employees and other critical inputs (raw materials, suppliers, contractors) required to maintain critical business operations throughout this difficult period.
Once you have your CBF, communicate to everyone what it is you will be doing, and not doing, until you have the capacity to return to Business as Usual.
