Overview
The Route Map to Business Continuity Management: Meeting the requirements of BS 25999
There are many factors that can cause disruption to your business. These range from relatively common occurrences, such as staff sickness and loss of technology, to major disturbances, such as natural disasters or terrorist attacks. Any one of these incidents could cause a failure to deliver products and services to the usual standard or, in extreme cases, a failure to deliver at all. By adopting business continuity management (BCM), organizations will be better equipped to meet the challenges they face when a disruption occurs.
The Route Map to Business Continuity Management: Meeting the requirements of BS 25999 has been written to help those managers who have decided to introduce BCM into their organization. It includes case studies and templates to assist with the various stages of the BCM process. It is based on the new British Standard for BCM, BS 25999, Parts 1 and 2 and on the plan-do-check-act model used by BS 25999-2 and other management systems, such as ISO 9001.
This book offers practical advice on implementing BS 25999. It provides a step-by-step guide that will enable organizations, no matter what their size or sector, to meet the requirements of BS 25999 and to prepare themselves for certification.
