ISO 22301 Business Continuity
ISO 22301 CERTIFICATION
At Bureau Veritas, we offer comprehensive ISO 22301 certification services to help organisations prepare for and respond to disruptive events. Implementing a business continuity management system (BCMS) based on the ISO 22301 standard can help organizations minimise the impact of disruptions and maintain critical business functions.
ISO BUSINESS CONTINUITY
Utility services interruption, IS/IT outages and breaches, whether malicious or accidental, acts of nature, extreme weather, supply chain disruption. In today’s uncertain world, these are just a few of the many threats that can harm – or even end - your business by compromising your supply chain, quality standards, or the security of your organisation.
To ensure that you survive and recover as quickly as possible after any such incidents, it is vital to establish a strategy to allocate responsibility and resources to understand the risks, plan for a crisis, create controls, and structure operations.
WHAT IS ISO 22301?
ISO 22301 is an international standard for business continuity management. It provides a framework for organisations to identify and prioritise their key business activities and the risks that could disrupt them. The standard requires organisations to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve a business continuity management system (BCMS) to minimise the impact of disruptions and enable a timely and effective recovery.
Certification to ISO 22301 can provide several benefits, including increased resilience, enhanced reputation, and improved stakeholder confidence. It can also help organisations comply with regulatory requirements and win new business by demonstrating their commitment to business continuity management.
