Business Continuity Management

Business Continuity Management

BCM is about the maintenance or rapid restoration of key business activities and services. Having effective plans in place is essential to build resilience and long-term sustainability.

Overview

The benefits of having effective business continuity plans include:

  • Protecting staff, customers, public, other stakeholders in the event of a disruption.
  • Protecting reputation and brand.
  • Identifying potential risks and threats.
  • Reducing impacts of a disruption: financial loss, recovery costs, and customer confidence.
  • Providing stakeholder assurance.

A good plan should provide flexible guidance to enable effective decision-making. Our approach is to help you develop recovery strategies and flexible, proportionate plans. We offer various levels of support: from a desktop review or critical friend support; testing and exercising through to plan development and larger resilience projects.

One recent customer told us: “Our time has been invaluable. I have learnt a huge amount around the necessity of continuity planning, and I think you have been able to make a very complicated subject very contextual to my operation”.
