Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a holistic management process that identifies potential threats to an organization and the impacts to business operations that those threats, if realized, might cause, and which provides a framework for building organizational resilience with the capability for an effective response that safeguards the interests of its key stakeholders, reputation, brand, and value-creating activities. The BCM program outlines processes, procedures, and guidelines to ensure the organization is prepared to respond to any potential disruption or disaster.
