It depends....

If it is a new environment, and you have the ability to implement via best 
practices and following strict common sense guidelines, it is possible for one 
person to maintain NBU, for 95% of sites out there.

You must remember, NBU touches everything around it...

umpteen different apps, network, SAN, OS, I/O etc....

my hat goes off to the people who code it up.....it is a monumental task

NBU only works as good as your environment does...the weaker your 
infrastructure is set up from top to bottom the more people it will take to 
maintain NBU.
