What might the expected costs be to modify an existing Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) to meet the new minimum requirements?
The costs should be minimal. Many of these components were already in place with the previous State Administrative Manual Sections 4843-4843.1 policies, so they should not be new to agencies. Many of the processes identified in the new Disaster Recovery Plan Documentation Instructions (SIMM 65A) should already be documented by agencies, such as backup and offsite storage documentation, which can be, fairly easily, incorporated into the agency’s DRP.
