Compliance and certification in accordance with

ISO 22301 Business Continuity

Business continuity in line with ISO 22301 assesses an organisation’s ability to remain operational even during unexpected incidents or disasters. This includes developing plans and procedures for crisis management, disaster recovery, and safeguarding essential business processes.

Investing in business continuity means investing in the future of your organisation. Staying operational—whatever the circumstances—that’s what it’s all about.

The benefits of ISO 22301 for your organisation’s business continuity

Complying with the ISO 22301 Business Continuity standard offers significant benefits to a wide range of organisations.

Responding to incidents

ISO 22301, the standard for Business Continuity Management (BCM), outlines the requirements for a management system that protects companies from both expected and unexpected events. Should an incident occur, you will be able to respond and act appropriately. This is vital for ensuring the quality and continuity of your operations and minimising potential damage.

Continuing critical processes

Implementing ISO 22301 BCM provides your organisation with tools to maintain critical processes and strengthens your resilience against unexpected disruptions.

Preparedness for emergencies

By implementing ISO 22301, your organisation is prepared for emergencies and can reduce recovery costs.

Lower (or no) recovery costs

Beyond reducing the likelihood of long-term disruptions, improved continuity often leads to significantly lower recovery costs. Preventing a cyberattack is much cheaper than resolving one.

Why choose compliance and certification in ISO 22301?

In a world that’s constantly changing and where businesses face diverse risks, ensuring business continuity is essential. Unexpected events—such as sudden power outages, network failure, or a destructive fire that renders part of your building unusable—can seriously impact your organisation, processes, and services. Many organisations rely on standard infrastructure, which can leave them unable to continue their operations in the event of disruption.

Preparing for an incident or disaster

In recent years, these kinds of situations have caused major damage to many organisations, some even resulting in bankruptcy. They were unable to deliver services, manufacture products, treat patients, or were publicly criticised due to unsafe situations for staff or customers. While disasters and incidents are often unpredictable, organisations can prepare to reduce the impact.

An effective 22301 BCMS

The ISO 22301 standard offers a framework and guidelines for organisations to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve an effective Business Continuity Management System (BCMS). The goal is to protect critical business processes and ensure that essential activities can continue during unexpected disruptions.

Which organisations is ISO 22301 suitable for?

ISO 22301 is suitable for organisations of any size and in any sector that aim to improve resilience and business continuity. Whether you are a manufacturer, service provider, financial institution, or public sector organisation, this standard offers a flexible framework that can be tailored to your specific needs. It is an effective tool for minimising the impact of unexpected events and enabling fast recovery.
