Increasing demands on professional Business Continuity Management (BCM)
In the life sciences and chemical industry, ensuring business continuity is not just best practice. Rather, it is a legal necessity, as it bears a special responsibility for supplying the population with medicines, some of which are vital. Unforeseen disruptions, whether global pandemics, natural disasters or supply chain disruptions, can have a significant impact on operations. An effective business continuation strategy is therefore of crucial importance.

Integrated approach for comprehensive protection of your business capability
The failure of critical business processes can threaten a company's existence. The biggest challenge lies in identifying and prioritizing important functions that need to be restored after an interruption. These can include research and development, production, distribution and approval.
The measures for quickly restoring the ability to act are based on two key standards: Firstly, the internationally established ISO 22301 standard, which defines requirements for the planning, structured development, implementation, monitoring and improvement of a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS). Secondly, the BSI standard 200-4 (especially in Germany), which formalizes the topic with regard to implementation.
