British Standard BS25999-2 specifies the requirements for establishing and operating a Business Continuity Management System or BCMS. This is an essential pre-requisite for a viable continuity solution and provides for:

• A clear expression of the organisation’s BCM requirement
  
  
• Controls and measures that manage its continuity risks
  
  
• Monitoring and feedback on BCM performance and effectiveness
  
  
• Continual improvement using objective measurement
  

These are important attributes and organisations need an effective BCMS to ensure their BCM capability remains aligned with ongoing business objectives. Operating without a BCMS can result in measures that don’t work or aren’t required, and consequently, a diluted return on investment. It further risks directors misleading stakeholders and failing in their legal duty.

• Tailored BCM Policy aligned with organisational requirements
