The skills and abilities of the combined team members must cover a wide range of responsibilities, many of which are dictated by the business function(s). Ideally, team members are supervisors who can effectively invoke a business unit’s recovery process in the event of a disaster. Team members are responsible for researching their respective parts of the plan and for meeting deadlines. It is recommended that one team member serve as a scribe to create the plan documentation. If the plan is executed, the scribe maintains a log of recovery activities and expenses. Also, one team member should be responsible for the maintenance of any off-site storage.
