The best defense is a good offense. It sounds like the DR or BCP components for the project were not figured into the design and costing of the project and hence, the full cost to business was not given to the parties signing off on the original project. Sounds like a project management issue from a corporate perspective. If you could have DR and BCP costs figured into all projects before they are approved and participate in the project as it moves along its' development this may be prevented in the future. Certainly not as easy as it sounds but that is the best solution moving forward. Bottom line, make sure that within your company's project management methodology, that BCP/DR are at least a line item!
Your immediate problem, however, is about your current situation. The business has really three choices:
1. Do nothing (I certainly don't recommend this one, but ultimately it's a business risk decision)
2. Wait until the next budget cycle to include the needed components (the business risk is there, but mitigated eventually)
3. Gain approval to purchase the needed equipment now (my favorite, but I'd have to imform the business owners of the project of the extra costs

There is no painless solution, but this will definitely be a "lesson learned" by management and the project team(s) so that in the future, they will include incorporating DR and BCP in the beginning stages of a project.
