Your County - Putting Kent First

Kent 4 star Council

Who needs to know

Everybody should know what to do and what is expected of them in a crisis and Business Continuity Management (BCM) helps with this.

BCM is a generic management framework that is valid across the public, private and voluntary sectors. It is about maintaining the essential business deliverables of an organisation during a disruption and forms part of the government's wider resilience policy.

BCM Methodology
The Business Continuity Institute (BCI) has developed a five-stage process, which has become widely accepted. This model provides a generic framework that is applicable across industry and the service sector. Work is presently underway to integrate the methodology into a British Standard.
