ESi ContinuityPlanner is a stand-alone software tool that enables federal, state, and local government planners to design customized and flexible continuity of government (COG) and continuity of operations (COOP) plans that can be used and shared during an exercise or crisis situation with an unlimited number of recipients. ESi ContinuityPlanner is based on an over 20-year industry standard in continuity planning, the Living Disaster Recovery Planning System (LDRPS) from SunGard Availability Services. Planners use federal guideline-compliant templates to build as many plans as needed, covering response, resumption, recovery, crisis management, and COOP, as well as scenario-based plans. ESi ContinuityPlanner then integrates these plans into a cohesive continuity and recovery program.
