Bussiness Continuity Planning

Business continuity management is an essential part of an organisations’ means of surviving unexpected adverse events, which impact on its ability to continue to operate.  Such events would include natural, accidental or criminal incidents such as fire, flood, theft, assault and terrorist intrusion.  They could involve the partial or complete closure of an organisation’s premises for an unspecified period.

The effectiveness of contingency plans to deal with a range of events is often the deciding factor as to whether a business will be able to continue to trade thereafter.  Many businesses without effective plans and facing such adverse incidents, fail to recover.

These address key questions of how, when and where an organisation can re-structure to maintain ongoing operations, to protect the interests of its stakeholders.
