Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS)

At WWISE, we help organisations prepare for the unexpected with ISO 22301:2019 Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS). This standard provides a globally recognised framework to ensure that critical business functions can continue during and after disruptive incidents such as natural disasters, cyberattacks, or supply chain failures.

What ISO 22301:2019 Is and Why It Matters

ISO 22301:2019 is the international standard for business continuity management systems. It defines requirements for planning, establishing, implementing, and continually improving a framework that protects against disruptions and ensures timely recovery.

The standard helps organisations:

  • Identify critical business functions and dependencies.
  • Develop risk-based strategies for continuity and recovery.
  • Test and validate plans through simulations and exercises.
  • Build organisational resilience to withstand crises.

By adopting ISO 22301:2019, organisations demonstrate to customers, partners, and regulators that they can maintain service delivery under all circumstances.

  • Resilience against disruption: Ensures critical operations continue during emergencies.
  • Customer assurance: Builds trust by demonstrating preparedness and reliability.
  • Risk reduction: Identifies vulnerabilities in supply chains, IT systems, and processes.
  • Regulatory compliance: Supports adherence to laws and industry standards.
