What is ISO 22301?

ISO 22301 is the Business Continuity Management System standard. The Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) has been developed to protect companies from the risks associated with downtime which can occur due to unexpected disruptions or disasters. Disruptions to your business can result in revenue loss, data risk breakdowns and failure to deliver normal client services as per service level agreements (SLAs) or customers contracts.

Do you have a BCP plan in place should the unthinkable happen? By implementing this standard your staff and interested parties are ready should you need to bring into practice your processes.
