ISO 22301

Now, some of your clients or customers might believe that that's what you're trying to tell them.

If you say, yeah, we're BC ready, yeah, we've got BC plans, or even we're certified to ISO 22301, which I'll mention later.

But that's not necessarily feasible.

It might not be within your business remit, your capability to say, yes, we're impervious, we're perfect.

So it's about putting those, I call it the building blocks, right? You build those blocks in place and that helps you with the recovery.

So taking on from that, if that's business continuity, exercising is just a critical part of that same framework.

And before I go any further, let's make reference to ISO 22301, which I briefly alluded to earlier.

That's the best practice internationally recognised know standard for business continuity known as ISO 22301 as I said and we follow that here at URM and everything I do is pretty much done in the spirit of following that best practice it has mandatory requirements if you want to get certified to the standard or say you're aligned to the standard you need to be following and doing and implementing those requirements and one of them is conducting business continuity exercises.
