[OR] [PM] [P2] [Appendix] [J] Scenario Testing Report Template

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.

They are designed to helpa practitioners translate the concepts described in Chapters 1 to 8 of the eBook "A Practitioner’s Guide to the Implement Phase" into structured organisational activities.

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

Implement Phase Appendices

These appendices provide practical templates, checklists, registers, and implementation tools to support the five stages of the Implement Phase:

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

The templates should be adapted to reflect the organisation’s size, complexity, regulatory environment, risk profile, governance structure, and operational resilience maturity.
