Welcome to KYRON
Hi and welcome to Kye-ron. Kye-ron helps you develop a comprehensive business continuity plan through a clear structured process. It guides your thinking, connects your recorded answers and helps you build practical arrangements your people can understand and use. Let's follow Harbour Print, a fictional business that needs to keep urgent customer orders moving when its workshop is disrupted. Each section explains what you'll capture, why it matters and what you'll have achieved.
Plan foundations
You work through one question at a time, with guidance along the way. First, plan foundations. Which services, teams and locations are you protecting? Who owns the plan? What must it achieve? Harbour Print starts with customer orders and dispatch from its Bristol workshop. Those boundaries give later decisions a clear purpose. If a question feels unfamiliar, ask Kye-ron explains it, offers a fictional example and shows what a reviewer would check. You adapt the answer to your organisation. In the full app, your draft saves as you work. Need someone else's input? Leave a question for later and return through the section review.
Prepare your people
Next, prepare your people. Who responds? Who covers them and what can they decide? We name Alex as Response Lead and SAM as Deputy, with authority to activate the plan and authorise the fallback workshop. The team still needs to confirm the contacts and arrangements work,
Understand the impact
now understand the impact. Harbour Print's orders begin to queue after two hours. By eight hours, same day dispatch has been missed. Time-based prompts help describe how consequences develop. You choose which observations to include. On this fictional evidence, the team sets a four-hour recovery target within the eight-hour limit. What could interrupt that

warning won't make recovery faster. The same gap appears on the dashboard with a route back to review it. Kye-ron highlights selected conflicts and missing evidence in your recorded answers, helping you focus the next conversation. These checks depend on what you enter.
Build your response
Completion measures progress through the plan. It does not prove readiness. Now, build your response. When should the plan activate? Who leads and what happens first? We record the immediate actions. Check people are safe. Confirm the outage. Contact the fallback workshop and brief the customer team. Add owners, timings, decision authority and communications so a trained
Exercise and improve
deputy can follow the instructions under pressure. Finally, exercise and improve. Harbourprint plans a rehearsal. Can urgent orders resume within four hours? Record the exercise type, success criteria and safeguards. A discussion and an operational test provide different evidence. Kye-ron distinguishes a planned exercise from a completed one with recorded results. In our fictional rehearsal, urgent orders resume in five hours. A supplier call-out causes the delay. We record the result and reference the exercise report. The requirement wasn't met, but the team now has a specific finding to address. Sam owns the follow-up. Agree a faster call-out and repeat the exercise. With a due date, keep the action open until it is completed and checked,
The finished branded PDF
then record the closure evidence. What do you get at the end? In the full app, you can export a comprehensive PDF planning pack with your company logo and branded cover. It brings together your recorded scope, responsibilities, impact assessments, recovery arrangements, response actions, exercises and improvement work in a document you can save, print and share. You can also produce a focused response plan for use during a disruption. The full example on this website shows the depth and structure of the finished PDF
Keep your plan current
so you can see what you're building towards. As circumstances change, revisit your decisions and create revisions while preserving earlier versions. Export backups to keep a separate copy of your work. From the first question to the finished document, Chiron helps you build a plan your people can understand, challenge, practice and improve. That's Chiron.
