Information collected from the business
impact analysis provides a subset of functions that
are critical. To fine tune the priorities of these
functions, a business process study is required. The
basis of this
analysis is collected early in the questionnaire under
internal functional areas. This analysis looks at
where
workflows begin and end and gets down to the level
of business processes and how each functional area
of
an organization is connected.
Suppose business function X is considered
the most critical, based on the business impact analysis.
However, business function X depends on inputs from
business function Y before work can begin. Therefore,
the process performed by business function Y must be
recovered before business function X can begin work.
