Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

The Criticality Survey is implemented through a standard questionnaire to gather input from the most knowledgeable people. Not all personnel that is going to be part of recovery teams is necessarily able to help in identifying critical functions of the organization.

The intent of such a survey is to identify the services and systems that are critical to the organization.

Having a clearly stated purpose for the survey helps in avoiding misinterpretations.

Management's approval of the survey should be obtained before distributing it.

I think option A is incorrect. The survey should involve all relevant personnel, not just the recovery teams.
