BCI publishes revised ‘Good Practice in Business Continuity Management’ guidelines

Get free weekly news by e-mailThe Business Continuity Institute has published a substantially revised version of its ‘Good Practice in Business Continuity Management’ guidelines.

The Good Practice Guidelines were first released in 2002 and have been used widely around the world as the basis for many business continuity management projects. They also played a significant part in the development of the British Standards Institution's Publicly available Specification for Business Continuity Management (PAS56).

The Good Practice Guidelines describe the process and explain the principles and terminology of business continuity management and, as the name suggests, provide recommendations for good practice.  The guidelines aim to be applicable to all organisations, regardless of size or industry sector, and are intended for use by business continuity management practitioners, risk managers auditors and regulators.

The guidelines may be used freely provided that the source of the material is fully acknowledged, the information is not amended (except with permission of the BCI) and that it is not used directly for commercial gain.

The Good Practice Guidelines (2005) can be downloaded from http://www.thebci.org/BCIGPG2005.pdf
