What is ISO 22301 Certification?

ISO 22301 specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving a documented Business Continuity Management System (BCMS). This standard is designed to help organizations minimize risks with better planning, implementation, and improvement. It also establishes more efficient ways of operating by providing clear guidelines for dealing with threats and vulnerabilities, developing and implementing appropriate policies, procedures, plans, and agreements. ISO 22301 certification is provided to organizations by a third-party certification body once the organization has demonstrated it meets the requirements of the ISO standard.

ISO 22301 certification is not a one-time achievement, but rather a process that needs to be maintained on an ongoing basis. This can be achieved through a documented Management Review that evaluates a number of factors including organizational resilience and business continuity performance, the effectiveness of security controls implementations, risks identification, and risk treatment plans.

Advantages of ISO 22301 Certification

ISO 22301 certification can provide many benefits, such as:

Increased customer confidence: By obtaining an ISO 22301 certification, organizations can demonstrate to customers that they are committed to business continuity and risk management. This helps to increase their confidence in the organization and encourages them to remain loyal customers.
Enhanced reputation: An ISO 22301 certification is a sign of good practice and sends a positive message to potential customers, partners and investors. It helps to improve an organization’s reputation and can give it a competitive edge over others in the same industry.
Improved resilience: Having an effective business continuity management system in place ensures that the organization is better prepared for any disruptions or crises that may arise. Thus, ISO 22301 certification helps to reduce the impact of such crises and improve the organization’s ability to recover quickly.
Reduced legal liabilities: An ISO 22301 certification helps organizations meet their legal obligations with regards to business continuity and risk management. It can therefore help to reduce the risk of litigation that could arise from not having a compliant system in place.

An organization that has been certified against ISO 22301:2019 will benefit from accelerated credibility and market recognition through their closer alignment to industry best practices.
