Explanation
Having one integrated plan ensures that disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity (BCP) activities are coordinated and do not conflict during an actual event. In a large organization, disjointed plans can cause confusion, duplication, or gaps in response. Testing them separately (B) is a useful practice but not the most critical requirement. Addressing all backup systems (C) is a component of DR but too narrow in scope. Integrating all business functions (D) is an important goal but is a subset of what an integrated plan achieves. A single, unified plan ensures consistent command, communication, and sequencing across all recovery activities.
