Achieve Business Continuity with ISO 22301 Consultants

What Is ISO 22301?

ISO 22301 is the international standard for Business Continuity Management Systems, designed to help organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptive incidents. It provides a structured framework to identify critical functions, assess impact, and implement strategies that ensure continuity of operations.

Primary Elements of a BCMS

• Context & Scope: Define internal and external factors, interested parties, and the scope of your BCMS.

• Leadership & Commitment: Establish a business continuity policy and assign roles, responsibilities, and authorities.

• Business Impact Analysis (BIA): Identify critical activities, set recovery time objectives (RTO), and resource requirements.

• Risk Assessment & Treatment: Analyze threats and vulnerabilities, then develop mitigation strategies.

• Support & Resources: Ensure competence, awareness, and effective communication among stakeholders.

• Operating Controls: Implement continuity strategies, recovery procedures, and incident response plans.

• Performance Evaluation: Monitor, measure, and evaluate BCMS performance through drills, internal audits, and management reviews.

• Improvement: Address nonconformities, implement corrective actions, and drive continual improvement.
