GLS Business Continuity Planning™
Anticipate and mitigate against disruptions to your business
The Problem
You do not have a Business Continuity Plan. Your ability to weather an operational interruption is anyone’s guess.
Related challenges include:
- data breaches, server outages, weather emergencies and other crises can be extremely costly
- 75% of businesses hit by a major operational disaster fail within 3 years of the event
- your response to a crisis can impact how your customers and the public view your business
- your customers are increasingly requesting visibility on your BCP
- the increased instances of major business disruption means ignoring the risk is not feasible
- an absent BCP may well violate certain portions of your business interruption insurance
- the effectiveness of your crises response correlates to the extent of pre-event preparation
If you don’t have time to properly put in place a BCP plan for your business now, when will you? After the disruption event?
The GLS Solution
GLS Business Continuity Plan™ guides you through the methodologies you will need to formulate an ever increasingly robust set of contingency processes and protocols, and thereby minimise the potential impact of adverse scenarios.
Regardless of the disaster scenario, planning your organisation’s response by reference to an established methodology allows for the efficient emergence of a robust and practical BCP solution.
