Abstract

Predictable and unpredictable disruptions of supply chains are omnipresent. This has led to an increased interest in methods and tools to handle disruptions. A possible solution to reduce the impact of disruptions to organizations is the implementation of a business continuity management system (BCMS). The objective of a BCMS is to continue the delivery of products and services within an acceptable time frame at predefined capacity during disruption. This manuscript, therefore, presents the content of a BCMS referring to the well-recognized standards ISO 22301 and the corresponding standard of the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) in Germany. The central element of an BCMS is the business impact analysis and for this reason it is discussed in detail. Finally, the BCMS is set into the broader field of supply chain resilience. It is important to consider the supply side to achieve resilience.
