Description

​

ISO 22301:2019, Security and Resilience - Business Continuity Management System (BCMS), is an internationally recognized standard for organizations to implement and maintain effective business continuity plans, systems, and processes. This updated standard replaces the old ISO 22301:2012.

​

A wide range of threats can disrupt the smooth operation of an organization, such as floods, cyber-attacks, IT breakdowns, supply chain issues, or loss of skilled staff. Failure to address these threats effectively can lead to disruption or even business failure. Therefore, consistent planning for disasters is essential to provide a more effective response and quicker recovery.

​

ISO 22301:2019 provides a holistic, strategic approach to an organization's business continuity policy, plans, and actions. By implementing the ISO 22301:2019 framework, organizations can minimize downtime during incidents and improve recovery time. The recent COVID-19 pandemic, floods, and cyber-attacks have highlighted the importance of business continuity plans and systems to keep businesses running and minimize disruptions.

​

This standard applies to all organizations, regardless of their size, industry, or nature of business. It is also relevant to certification and regulatory bodies, enabling them to assess an organization's ability to meet its legal or regulatory requirements. Business continuity and risk professionals, supply chain directors, audit managers and associates, developers of corporate social responsibility reports, regulatory bodies, and anyone interested in business continuity can benefit from ISO 22301.

​

ISO 22301 brings together international best practices to help organizations respond to and recover from disruptions effectively. This results in reduced costs and less impact on business performance should something go wrong. Moreover, organizations with multiple sites or divisions can rely on the same consistent approach throughout the entire organization.

​

ISO 22301 also provides a clear and detailed view of how an organization operates, offering valuable insights for strategic planning, risk management, supply chain management, business transformation, and resource management.
