Business and Service Continuity / Business Continuity
Business Continuity is an essential process for a business that demonstrates their commitment to staying in businesses by ensuring non interruption of their operations in the event of a disaster. This essentially allows the organisation to protect their operations and underlined their commitment to ensuring nothing jeopardises their efforts in achieving their business objectives. There has been a regulatory and global focus on Business Continuity after the 9/11 attack on New York. This event underlines the criticality of such a process and the importance it should be given by management.
A Business Impact Analysis is a prerequisite for any organisation that takes this seriously. It allows the organisation to understand the critical and non-critical activities so that the appropriate business and technical recovery solutions can be established. Our consultants are highly skilled in this area having worked on this several times with leading organisations in the world.
The BS25999 standard provides a specification for implementing a Business Continuity Management System within an organization. This standard has been accepted worldwide as the de-facto yardstick for establishing a business continuity plan. Following the recommendations and processes outlined in this standard can be daunting for some organisations as it can be overwhelming. We have wide experience in this area and can assist such organisations either by guiding them through all these processes or by directly carrying out all these processes working with them to test and implement them.
