Hi All **
** We have an urgent requirement for a BCDR testing Position in Washington DC Duration 6 Months **** Rate: Open *Introduction* **The Client recently redesigned our Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) architecture as part of the Client ’s Global IT Infrastructure Strategic Realignment (GSR). It comprises of two data centers, the primary is in Chantilly, VA and the secondary is Washington DC. As a result of GSR, we have recently completed the migration of key systems to an active-active architecture. During the migration, a Disaster Recovery(DR) plan was created. This DR plan has DR testing steps for individual applications, Given this new architecture, we need to define and begin to implement a new approach to BCDR testing. This is needed to confirm the resiliency of our systems and our ability to recover full capacity following an unplanned outage, satisfying our prescribed Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO). *Project scope*The contractor will: 1) Gain an understanding of Client 's systems architecture.2) Review Client ’s application-level recovery steps to satisfy prescribed RTOs and RPOs.3) Identify relevant industry standards for resiliency and recovery testing.4) Develop an approach and program for ongoing "steady state" BCDR testing. 5) Recommend the method, sequencing and timeline for phased implementation of the testing program, including the specific components for the first stage of implementation to be completed by June 30, 2010. 6) Develop detailed plan for the first stage of testing, including test scripts, to enable execution of the testing and also to serve as template for the development of similar plans for later stages of testing. *Deliverables*1) Create a steady state BCDR testing program, for adoption by Client . This program should be defined in sufficient detail with testing plans for individual components. The program definition document should include sections providing an overview of Client 's systems architecture and referencing applicable industry standards, on which the program is based.2) Create a program implementation plan, for adoption by Client . The plan should define implementation phases and the individual components thereof, a timeline for execution, and estimated resources required for execution of each phase. It should cover the first full cycle of the steady state testing program, to be repeated thereafter. This plan will adhere to Client ’s business imposed blackout dates 3) Conduct the first stage of testing. The test plan, including test scripts for the first stage of implementation to be completed by June 30, 2010. The plan should be documented in a form that will serve as a template for plans for all remaining stages (which are to be developed at a later date).4) Report on results, findings and recommendations from first stage of testing. **Please send me matching resumes to [email protected] with rate, current location and contact details. *Thanks & Regards* *Hardeep* *Sr Accounts Manager.* Boston Technology Corporation.│33 Boston Post Road West, STE 110, Marlborough, MA-01752, USA Tel: 781 544 4799 Ext 107 │eFax: 508 519 9180│ www.boston-technology.com│ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Open Source Erp & Crm" group.
