So what is Business Continuity Management?
Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a management process that helps ensure:

•        The resilience of your business when faced with a crisis or disruptive event; 
•        Continuity of services to your key clients or customers; and
•        The defence and protection of your brand and reputation.

There are typically six steps to the business continuity management process:

1.     Understanding the risks faced by your organisation through BCM .
        Assessment
2.     Build a business continuity strategy
3.     Develop a BCP including a Crisis Management Plan, Emergency
        Management Plan, Business Recovery Plan and Disaster Recovery Plan
4.     Build awareness of your BCM strategy and BCP throughout your organisation
5.     Rehearse the BCP

In the past twenty years, the numbers of disasters throughout the world, and the scale of their impact, have reached unprecedented proportions.  In this era of uncertainty, Business Continuity – which was once a “nice to have” feature in an organisation – has become an essential business function to maintain customer confidence and a competitive edge.
