How Was Canadian Premier Able to Manage During the Pandemic?
Tahir Rao, Canadian Premier Life Insurance (Subsidiary of Securian Financial)
Before November 2019, there was no Business Continuity or disaster recovery plan available in the company, and it was an uphill task to build end to BCM framework, including developing of BCM Policy, identification and training of BCP Coordinators, identification of mission-critical systems, processes, data, people, and preparation of data. The other challenge was to eliminate traditional off-site/alternate locations and while creating a capability of working remotely in crisis/emergency, impacting all the locations like the current pandemic. This presentation will describe the success story of Canadian Premier Life Insurance where within a short period of six-months a complete BCM framework was built, including preparation and approval of BCM Policy, Procedure, getting buy-in from businesses, the nomination of BCP coordinators, their training, conducting BIA, the testing of BCM Plan, and seamlessly transition to working from home.
