Building Business Continuity Planning Frameworks for Technology-Driven Infrastructure Projects
Authors(3) :-Ebimor Yinka Gbabo, Odira Kingsley Okenwa, Possible Emeka Chima Technology-driven infrastructure projects are increasingly central to modern urban development, yet their growing reliance on complex digital systems and automation introduces significant risks that can disrupt critical operations. This paper presents a comprehensive examination of business continuity planning (BCP) frameworks tailored specifically for these projects, emphasizing the unique challenges posed by technological dependencies, emerging cyber and operational threats, and the cascading impacts of disruptions. Drawing on established principles and international standards such as ISO 22301, the study outlines a structured framework development lifecycle encompassing risk assessment, business impact analysis, strategy formulation, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement. It highlights the importance of integrating continuity planning within organizational governance and regulatory policies to enhance resilience and strategic responsiveness. The paper concludes by proposing future research directions focused on leveraging advanced technologies and multidisciplinary approaches to refine continuity frameworks further. Overall, this work contributes to bridging theory and practice, offering actionable insights for planners, policymakers, and infrastructure managers seeking to safeguard the sustainability of critical technological assets.
