Finance:Business as usual (business)
From HandWiki
Business as usual (BAU), the normal execution of standard functional operations within an organisation, forms a possible contrast to projects or programmes which might introduce change.[1] BAU may also stand in contradistinction to external events which may have the effect of unsettling or distracting those inside an organisation.[clarification needed][citation needed]
Goals
The maintenance of BAU is the primary goal of business continuity planning (BCP).[citation needed]
In climatology
"Business as usual" is a phrase is frequently used in climate change studies to warn of the dangers of not implementing changes in order to prevent the world from warming further.[2][3][4]
