    WHAT WE OFFER

    PROGRAM OVERVIEW

    Businesses are constantly ‘concerned’ about how to keep themselves ‘going’. Business ontinuity management (BCM) strategies have evolved as business became more complex, more global, and more digital. As the importance of business continuity planning has become increasingly evident, it makes sense to explore how BCM works to protect the longevity of organisations.

    Most of the early focus (1970s) in the art of business continuity was on protecting large data centres with large mainframe systems. These data centres were water-cooled and the purpose of BCM was to protect the pipes providing the chilled water supply.

    Business continuity grew into an actual profession in the early 1980s. The West led the charge. The United States government introduced its first standards on BCM in the 1990s, originating the terms ‘continuity of operations’ (COOP) and ‘continuity of government’.

    The dawn of the 21st Century brought along the Year 2000 problem, a.k.a the Y2K problem, which affected businesses that were dependent on Information Technology, especially the banking sector. This highlighted the need to conduct a business impact analysis to proactively mitigate risks. One of the inflection points which reinforced the need for a robust business continuity was the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center which took several successful firms out of business. Over a period of time, new threats like pandemic attacks, and many extreme weather conditions started disrupting businesses across the globe, necessitating the need for stronger BCM practices and corresponding regulations.

    Today, global regulations and standards – GDPR, NIST, HIPAA, ISO 22301, etc., specifically mention business continuity as a non – negotiable mandatory requirement. More than 125 such global regulations, standards and good practices across the globe highlight the need for business continuity. ISO 22301 is the international standard for business continuity management. Continued operations in the event of a business disruption, whether due to a major disaster or a minor incident, are a fundamental requirement for any organisation. Ensuring operational continuity has led to the development of Business Continuity Management (BCM) as a recognised business discipline, and the ISO standard is an internationally-recognised management framework ensuring consistency, credibility and viability to existing business continuity management programs.
