What is ISO 22301?
ISO 22301 Business Continuity was developed to protect companies from the risks associated with downtime which can occur due to unexpected disruptions or disasters. ISO 22301 will guide your company on how to best plan for such eventualities. Disruptions to your business can result in revenue loss, data leaks or breakdown and/or failure to deliver normal client services.
ISO 22301 is designed to ensure that a robust business continuity management system has been established, and that internal staff members are fully aware of their role within the system should an incident occur.
Implementing a strong BCMS will direct your organisation in quickly recovering from a disaster or disruption. It can also safeguard an organisation against the reputational damage which can occur from; missed deadlines, data leaks, IT outages, industrial actions or even, direct financial losses due to the disruption/disaster.
How can ISO 22301 benefit your organisation?
ISO 22301 is suited to all organisations that cannot afford the downtime and damage to reputation caused with the disruption. For example, IT companies cannot afford outages as this would prompt their clients moving to competitors that seem more reliable.
