CBF 1: Asset and Facilities Management


In the face of unexpected disruptions—whether natural disasters, technological Failures, or other emergencies—Bandtree must maintain operational continuity, particularly for its critical business functions.

As a government-linked company under Darussalam Assets, Bandtree plays a pivotal role in managing national infrastructure and real estate assets.

To maintain service reliability and minimise operational downtime, a clear understanding of the minimum resources required during a disaster is crucial.

Purpose of Chapter

This chapter outlines the baseline requirements for recovering and maintaining each critical business function (CBF), with a specific focus on CBF-1: Asset and Facilities Management.

It includes detailed resource needs such as personnel, workspace, communication tools, computing devices, and other functional tools or systems necessary to sustain operations at designated recovery locations.

This structured approach ensures that Bandtree is adequately prepared to resume critical operations in a timely and efficient manner following a disruption.

This is the table for CBF-1: Asset & Facilities Management of Bandtree, including Sub-Processes (Sub-CBFs), Recovery Location (assumed placeholder), and Minimum Resource Requirements Per Function Per Recovery Location:

Summing Up ... 

Identifying and documenting the minimum resource requirements for each critical business function strengthens Bandtree’s ability to respond swiftly and effectively during a disaster.

By pre-defining the essential human, technological, and logistical inputs necessary at recovery sites, Bandtree ensures the resilience of its property and facilities management operations.

These resource allocations form the foundation for recovery planning and serve as a key reference for recovery teams during actual incidents.

Moving forward, these resource requirements will be periodically reviewed and updated to reflect changes in business operations, technology, and risk exposure, reinforcing Bandtree’s commitment to business continuity and national infrastructure stability.
