Some enterprises have been able to leverage their year 2000 efforts—particularly BCP and year 2000 command centers—to respond to disaster threats. Most enterprises, however, developed plans merely to satisfy audit requirements, and suspended their contingency planning efforts shortly after 1 January 2000. As a result, their plans could not be applied to the 11 September 2001 disaster because enterprises, processes and personnel change over time, and plans must be tested to cover new conditions. Nonetheless, enterprises can frequently leverage the processes used in addressing the year 2000 crisis to respond to new disasters. For this reason, we have adapted some archival Gartner research on BCP for this issue.
