Where all informal rescue and restructuring options have been exhausted, then a formal procedure may be required. At this stage things generally need to happen in a short timeframe.
 
Rescue options still exist at this stage and the company and/or business can still survive. An Administration Order is now the prevalent method for a formal rescue process, with it speed of action and low application cost being key factors.
