FY2007-2008 Business
Continuity Plan
Appendix C
C-0. General Risk Analysis
General Analysis:
Given the operating conditions and
assumptions within this Business Continuity Plan, the
University has the following strengths and weaknesses:
Strengths:
·
Many
key support services are at least partially administered
through the UH System, including payroll, personnel actions,
and computer mainframe support.
·
All
computer records, both mainframe and LAN are backed-up off
site and should be readily accessible if the interruption is
confined to the UHV campus and if PCs are available.
· Many
tasks are not time constrained and therefore there is some
degree of flexibility as to when and where these tasks need
to be done.
· Some
of the University's
key tasks can be reconfigured and can be accomplished from
home locations.
· Information Technology has a system of servers hosting key applications. If one server goes down, only that application is affected
Weaknesses:
·
Teaching tasks are time constrained.
· There is a total lack of off-site and/or pre-positioned supplies and equipment for the University.
· At present, considerable time may be required to locate and set up alternate operational and teaching sites since the availability of possible alternate sites is not guaranteed or confirmed.
· Information Technology, the access and delivery of electronically stored data and records, is extremely critical to almost the entire agency’s daily operational tasks.nt>
