There are many enforceable circumstances that arise when businesses do not actually have a BCP. If we have a look at the COVID-19 pandemic, no one could have anticipated that the pandemic would turn into a global pandemic and affect a lot of economies, but it has and now that it is here, companies are having to use a lot of fire fighting tactics to make sure that they can survive after this pandemic. 
Some of the issues that companies are having face is to pay employees when they are not trading due to the fact that many countries have gone into a lock down. This has prevented a lot of companies from trading as only essential services are the ones that are supposed to remain open. 
Many businesses consider insuring companies against a fire, hurricane or a tornado as being the only type of insurance that is deemed to be quite necessary but may businesses now will have to struggle with trying to pay their employees when they are not making any money which will put a huge strain on some businesses. Some businesses may never actually recover from this pandemic because they did not have a proper BCP to guide them and they in turn did not plan for enforceable events. 
The COVID-19 global pandemic can be looked at as both an opportunity for some businesses and a catastrophe for others. Take the company that is making the ventilators during this global pandemic, because covid-19 attacks the lungs and most patients with aggressive symptoms have to breathe with the aid of these machines, production has increased for ventilators which means that thy are actually benefitting from this global pandemic. 
Companies that are also making masks and protective clothing that is being transferred all over the world, these companies are also making money off this pandemic as most companies will not produce these for free.

How then can companies bounce back from this global pandemic and what are some of things that they can do now to make sure that they respond and recover quickly and get their business up and running amidst this global pandemic that is COVID-19. You don’t want to be one of those businesses that failed simply because they didn’t give a little time and effort to planning.  But it’s so hard to carve out the time for something you might never need, right?
