Tailored specifically for the manufacturing environment, the book addresses unique challenges like production downtime and supply chain disruptions.

Readers will thoroughly understand BCM principles, industry considerations, and risk assessment methodologies. Step-by-step guidance is provided for building a BCM program, crafting Business Continuity Plans (BCPs), and integrating technology for disaster recovery.

An Industry Guide to Business Continuity Management for Manufacturing

This handbook is intended to be a reference written explicitly for the ISO 22301 BCM Standard. It aims to prepare novice and experienced BCM professionals for implementing a BC Plan and procedures, a BCM programme, and a BCMS.

The approach adopted in this handbook is to present a series of phases based on the BCM Planning Methodology. These phases are cross-referenced closely with the stage within Clause 8 - Operations of the ISO 22301 standard. Completing the deliverables in each phase within the BCM Planning Methodology will result in formulating and implementing the BC plan and procedures.

This book consolidates assorted practices and critical ideas of BCM into a single
location. It attempts to clarify and link some of these practices and ideas,
thereby providing practitioners with a better overview of BCM and the ISO
22301 itself.
