Business Continuity
Improving your business resilience and long term performance is central to your Business Continuity Management.
We assist you to formulate strategies that contribute substantially to the continuity of your business before a major disruption,
as well as following a disruption. Regardless of business size, these strategies can assist to sustain good governance, maintain or assist in market growth, protect reputation and public image.
Business Continuity Maturity Assessment
A Business Continuity Maturity Assessment provides insight to business preparedness to manage recovery of critical functions. Whilst plans may be detailed, they may still fail to meet expectations due to insufficient or inaccurate recovery requirements, errors in design, or implementation errors.
Business Impacts Analysis (BIA)
Business Impacts Analysis is an essential component of business continuity planning and Business Continuity Management. It assists an organisation in the identification of the potential risks specific to the business, and the vulnerabilities and planning needed to develop strategies for minimising the risks.
Business Continuity Planning (BCP)
Business Continuity Planning is the creation and validation of a logistical plan how critical (urgent) functions will be recovered & restored within a pre determined time after a disaster or extended disruption (local incidents like building fires, regional incidents like earthquakes, or national incidents like pandemic illnesses).
Business Continuity Rehearsals & Testing
Business Continuity Rehearsals & Testing is conducted to assess that solutions satisfy an organisation's recovery requirements. Whilst plans may be detailed, they may still fail to meet expectations due to insufficient or inaccurate recovery requirements, errors in design, or implementation errors.
Business Continuity Management (BCM) Frameworks
Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a holistic process that identifies potential impacts threatening an organisation and provides a framework for building resilience and capability for an effective response, safeguarding the interests of key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value creating activities. BCM must be owned and fully integrated into the organisation as an embedded management process.
Business Continuity Management Policy, Procedures & Guidelines
To be effective BCM must be an accepted management process driven from the top of the organisation. It has to be set out in a vision statement that is fully endorsed and actively promoted by the Executives of the organisation - the policy of the organisation. It further needs to be supported by clear and defined procedures and guidelines which assist staff in carrying out their respective roles and responsibilities.
