BCM Governance

Sustainable business continuity management needs more than good individual measures. A clear regulatory framework is needed – BCM governance. Responsibilities, scope, roles, methods and internal regulations form the foundation on which all further BCM activities are built.

When BCM is anchored in governance, it stops being a formality and becomes a valuable management tool. That’s exactly where we support our clients.

What Does BCM Governance Mean in Concrete Terms?

BCM Governance includes the organizational anchoring and control of the BCM system within your organization. It is at the heart of all BCM activities. Governance includes, but is not limited to:

  • Definition of roles and responsibilities

  • Defining the Organizational Scope

  • Description of the methodology and approach

  • Integration into existing management systems

  • Regulations for documentation, maintenance and further development

This Is How We Proceed

1

Clarify goals

Together with you, we clarify which governance aspects already exist, what goals you are pursuing and how the BCM is embedded in your organization.

2

Analyzing Structures

We review existing role descriptions, responsibilities, guidelines and interfaces to existing management systems (e.g. IT, risk, compliance).

3

Developing Frames

Based on the analysis, we develop a tailor-made governance model – including roles, scope, regulations and methodological guidelines.

4

Develop governance

Together, we create the necessary guidelines, policies and role definitions – clearly formulated, auditable and understandable for all parties involved.

Your Benefits at a Glance

With a clearly defined BCM governance, you can:

  • Reliability in implementation – responsibilities are regulated, roles are clearly distributed.
  • Security in control – Your BCM is not dependent on individuals, but organizationally secured.
  • Acceptance in the company – through comprehensible rules and interfaces to existing systems.
  • Transparency for management and audit – thanks to structured specifications, comprehensible methods and lived responsibility.
  • Basis for further development – training, exercises and measures can be systematically planned and anchored.

We help you to create exactly the regulatory framework that your organization needs.
