Through risk identification, assessment, and impact analysis, organisations can prevent and respond to emergencies and incidents if and when they happen.
Business Continuity and Crisis Management
The world is unpredictable, and we know it’s hard to keep up with everything that happens. That’s why business continuity planning is an integral part of any business, regardless of size. The ability to recover from disruption and continue operating at total capacity is crucial for any company’s long-term success.
One in four business leaders don’t have a Business Continuity Plan (BCP), which puts their organisation, workers and data at risk. From cyberattacks and pandemics to natural disasters, it’s essential to have a plan in place so your company can respond, as well as recover from disruption and continue delivering products and services with minimal disruption when a crisis hits. As the pandemic has shown us, our global supply chain is fragile and recovery is critical.
The importance of maintaining business continuity
A lack of preparedness for disruptions can significantly impact your company’s performance and reputation. Here are some ways having a BCP can help.
Reduce risks and costs of interruption to operations
A BCP allows you to maintain operations during an incident and minimise downtime - which is crucial to maintaining customer relationships and continuing revenue streams.
Increase confidence of workers and stakeholders
Provide peace of mind by ensuring employees know their roles during an incident. This increases productivity and reduces stress levels among all stakeholders.
Satisfy corporate governance regulations
A BCP ensures you comply with legal requirements such as data protection, environmental protection, health & safety regulations and financial reporting obligations.
Understanding BCM
Business Continuity Management (BCM) ensures continuity and survival of the business by reducing exposure to loss and maintaining control during any crisis. Here’s how our dss+ BCM framework can help.
