Parapet Business Continuity Management

What Parapet Business Continuity Management is

Parapet Business Continuity Management helps continuity teams organize work around critical services, from business impact analysis and dependencies to plans, exercises, and improvement actions. Teams can record a service and its owner, add impact context, and link dependencies and plans. Exercises can capture tests, failures, and changed assumptions, then turn findings into assigned issues and dated actions. Shared status supports personal dashboards and portfolio reporting, including overdue plans and unresolved exercise findings. Continuity work can connect with operational resilience, enterprise risk, technology risk, and third-party dependencies without another Parapet module. Business impact analysis fields, terminology, ownership, and relationships are configured during implementation. Access controls include roles, groups, users, and item-level security; OpenID Connect identity providers are supported. SaaS costs from $1/mo with a 12-month commitment, or $5 a month with no commitment, billed by active items. Customer-hosted deployment has custom pricing. Parapet says an agreed SaaS implementation targets two to four weeks, depending on readiness and other factors.

Who it suits

It is intended for continuity teams managing plans, dependencies, exercises, gaps, and actions across services. It may also suit teams connecting continuity work with other listed risk domains.

Limits

The 12-month commitment plan is $1 a month, billed monthly according to active items; the Flexible plan is $5 a month on the same billing basis. Both charge per active item, have no minimum item count, and have no per-user or module fee. Inactive and archived items are not charged unless used for reporting or reactivated during that month.
