Senior management commitment

BCM must be supported by senior management in order to be successful. Senior management must be willing to allocate resources to BCM, and they must be willing to make changes to the organization’s processes and procedures in order to improve its resilience.

Business Impact Assessment (BIA)

The first step in developing a robust BCM plan is to identify time-sensitive or critical business functions within your organization and the resources that supports them and assesses the consequences of disruption these functions and gathers information that would be needed to develop a recovery strategy. See more on our approach to BIA.

Risk Assessment

Identify and assess the organization’s risks. This involves the potential threats and risks and estimating the likelihood and impact of those threats and risks. See more on our approach to Risk Assessment.

Risk Mitigation

Once the organization’s risks have been identified and assessed, steps can be taken to mitigate those risks. This may involve implementing security measures, system monitoring, developing contingency plans, system backups or training employees on how to respond to disruptions.

Disaster Recovery (DR)

A plan needs to be in included to ensure that the organisations critical business processes and systems can be restored a quickly as possible in the event of a major disaster, loss of data or disruption. It involves creating backups, replicating data to off-site locations, and implementing strategies for system restoration. DR plans help organizations minimize downtime, maintain business continuity, and protect critical assets, enabling timely recovery in the face of disasters.

Testing and maintenance

A BCM plan is not a static document as things always change. It should be regularly tested and updated to ensure that it is still effective. The organization should also have a process in place to review and maintain its BCM plan, so that it is up to date with the organization’s changing risks and needs.

Communication

Communication is essential for a successful BCM plan. Employees must be aware of the organization’s risks, and they must know what to do in the event of a disruption. The organization must also have a robust communication plan in place so that it can communicate effectively with its stakeholders during a disruption.
