Did You Know
Operational Resilience is often easiest to manage when it is tied to one named workflow, one accountable owner, and one measurable release gate.
Common Misconceptions
Operational resilience is the same as disaster recovery.
Operational Resilience is only a technical detail.
Can the business continue operating when systems, vendors, or workflows fail? In PRO71 delivery work, this term becomes useful when it changes scope, governance, implementation order, or release evidence.
PRO71 treats resilience as a cross-functional design issue across architecture, monitoring, incident response, process fallback, and executive visibility.

What risk does Operational Resilience reduce?
A recovery plan can look complete while missing real operating dependencies such as people, approvals, integrations, suppliers, or customer channels.
