TESTING OF THE BCDR PLAN The Service Provider shall test the BCDR Plan on a regular basis (and in any event not less than once in every Contract Year). Subject to paragraph 6.2, the Purchaser may require the Service Provider to conduct additional tests of some or all aspects of the BCDR Plan at any time where the Purchaser considers it necessary, including where there has been any change to the Services or any underlying business processes, or on the occurrence of any event which may increase the likelihood of the need to implement the BCDR Plan. If the Purchaser requires an additional test of the BCDR Plan, it shall give the Service Provider written notice and the Service Provider shall conduct the test in accordance with the Purchaser's requirements and the relevant provisions of the BCDR Plan. The Service Provider's costs of the additional test shall be borne by the Purchaser unless the BCDR Plan fails the additional test in which case the Service Provider's costs of that failed test shall be borne by the Service Provider. The Service Provider shall undertake and manage testing of the BCDR Plan in full consultation with the Purchaser and shall liaise with the Purchaser in respect of the planning, performance, and review, of each test, and shall comply with the reasonable requirements of the Purchaser in this regard. Each test shall be carried out under the supervision of the Purchaser or its nominee. The Service Provider shall ensure that any use by it or any Sub-contractor of “live” data in such testing is first approved with the Purchaser. Copies of live test data used in any such testing shall be (if so required by the Purchaser) destroyed or returned to the Purchaser on completion of the test. The Service Provider shall, within twenty (20) Working Days of the conclusion of each test, provide to the Purchaser a report setting out: the outcome of the test; any failures in the BCDR Plan (including the BCDR Plan's procedures) revealed by the test; and the Service Provider's proposals for remedying any such failures. Following each test, the Service Provider shall take all measures requested by the Purchaser, (including requests for the re-testing of the BCDR Plan) to remedy any failures in the BCDR Plan and such remedial activity and re-testing shall be completed by the Service Provider, at no additional cost to the Purchaser, by the date reasonably required by the Purchaser and set out in such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the carrying out of a test of the BCDR Plan (including a test of the BCDR Plan’s procedures) shall not relieve the Service Provider of any of its obligations under this Contract. The Service Provider shall also perform a test of the BCDR Plan in the event of any major reconfiguration of the Services or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Purchaser.
