ISO 22301 Certification
What is ISO 22301 Certification?
ISO 22301 is an international standard for Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS) to analyze, plan, recover, and implement the business process from unexpected events.
ISO 22301:2019 claims to protect the organization’s management from an unexpected disruption that arises from its risk assessment or any other disaster to the business having difficulties or failure in supplying products or services.
ISO 22301 certification aims to safeguard an organization from potential threats and disruptions. Organizations that comply with ISO 22301 standards tend to enhance their customers’ confidence about the consistency in delivering the services or products without any interruption.
A customized Business Continuity Plan within organizations assists in every aspect of the business process, including human resources, asset management, supplies, and maintenance. This helps organizations make decisions and build a recovery plan prior to any disruptions.
