###### Operational Resilience Planning Methodology: A Practitioner’s Guide to the “Implement” Phase

[![New call-to-action](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3893111/0b30db5b-3a78-4312-b4f9-f0214da92951.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3893111/0b30db5b-3a78-4312-b4f9-f0214da92951)The appendices bring the concepts discussed in A Practitioner’s Guide to the “Implement” Phase into practical application.

The appendices provide practical tools, templates, assessment structures, and implementation aids to support the Implement Phase of the Operational Resilience Planning Methodology.

[![\[OR\] \[PM\] \[P2\] 5 Stage of Implement Phase](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3893111/936cc697-2dbe-4ede-a43d-f063ecdedf4b.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3893111/936cc697-2dbe-4ede-a43d-f063ecdedf4b)

- Identify Critical Business Services
- Map Interconnections and Interdependencies
- Set Impact Tolerance
- Conduct Scenario Testing
- Improve Lessons Learned

These tools are intended to support consistent implementation, documentation, and review throughout the operational resilience journey.

They should be adapted to suit the organisation’s size, complexity, regulatory environment, risk profile, governance structure, and level of operational resilience maturity.

The tables can therefore serve as practical starting points and be customised to reflect the organisation’s specific operating environment and requirements
