Enhance your organisation's resilience and reduce the overall level of risk to your operations with our Business Continuity Management (BCM) consultants
DOWNLOAD THE BROCHURE >>In today’s world, it’s not “if” an incident will occur, it’s “when”. This is due to the ever-evolving and endless list of the threats we face, such as fire, flood, cyber-attacks, ransomware, pandemics, war or supply chain disruptions. Accordingly, our defence mechanisms also need to keep up with the threat landscape.
Ensuring that your organisation is resilient is a fundamental principle of mitigating evolving threats. Business Continuity Management (BCM) and Crisis Management are two key building blocks of this approach. The main purpose is to be able to continue to deliver business operations and services, at an acceptable level, whilst preventing any significant impact on customers, regulatory compliance, the brand, image and reputation of your organisation.
Our expert consultants will work with your organisation to improve its Business Continuity Management processes and to implement them consistently throughout the business. We also provide Crisis Management Consultancy to enhance the organisation’s ability to respond, should a serious incident occur.
In order for our BCM consultants to design and implement the most appropriate strategy and crisis management action plan for your organisation, we’ll partner with you to gain a thorough understanding of your business operations and objectives.
Through carefully executed crisis management assessments we’ll take a detailed look at your processes, supporting resources and underlying infrastructure to identify and address any weaknesses. We can then design and deliver business continuity and crisis management frameworks that enable your business to continue operating when an incident occurs.
As well as designing and preparing the required policies and procedures, our consultants conduct independent reviews and assessments of BCM frameworks and strategies. We also support organisations in testing their plans. This can be as “light touch” or as in-depth as clients wish. We can also support tabletop exercises or scenarios that require the physical and/or technical enactment of the Business Continuity or Crisis Management plans and systems.
By implementing effective Business Continuity Management and Crisis Management policies, procedures and strategies, you can realise the following benefits:
