Abstract
This publication addresses the issue of selecting ADP backup processing support in advance of events that cause the loss of data processing capability. The document emphasizes the need for managers at all levels of the organization to support the planning, funding, and testing of an alternate processing strategy. It provides a general description of the alternatives, and recommends criteria for selecting the most suitable alternate processing method.Citation
