Business
Continuity Management is a strategic process that identifies the potential
impacts of disruptions and aims to create the procedures and environment that
will enable an organization’s key processes and activities to continue and
recover, at a predetermined minimum level, in the event of disruption or loss.
BCM protects the interests of key stakeholders, shareholders and other interest
groups, as well as the company’s reputation and brand name.
It also
manages the continuity of delivering services and products. The basic
methodology uses the ISO 22 301, ISO 27 001 and ISO 31 000 management systems.
Note: Business Continuity is understood to be an organization’s strategic and
tactical capability to be prepared for and respond to incidents and disruptions
to the organization’s operations in order to continue at a predetermined,
acceptable level.
