Use this skill when a company needs recovery objectives it can defend, before a continuity plan, a disaster recovery design, an audit or a resilience review, and asks "do a BIA", "business impact analysis", "set our RTO and RPO", "what is our maximum tolerable downtime", "which services are critical", "impact tolerance" or "can our backups meet our recovery targets". Lists services from the customer's view, prices an outage over time in the company's own money and obligations, sets recovery…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
Use this before writing or revising a continuity or disaster recovery plan, and again when a service, a major supplier or the business model changes. You get two files in a new folder, `./business-impact-analysis/`: a spreadsheet you can open in Excel with one row per service, showing what an outage costs over time, how fast it must come back, how much data it may lose, what it depends on and whether today's backups can deliver that (`bia.csv`), and a short note of the assumptions, who gave each number and the decisions leadership must take (`bia-notes.md`). This skill drafts for a human to review and sign; this skill never marks a control effective. Leadership sets the objectives and accepts the gaps; the agent prices them. …

How to install
mdr add better-isms/grcskills/business-impact-analysis@sha256:2cd9df65da575ed4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.94f7f3e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
