What is ISO 22301:2019 certification?

ISO 22301 certification standard is known for being the business continuity management benchmark. It offers a framework that supports a company’s efforts to fight against disruptive events constantly. The standard aims to determine business sustainability with the help of a set of practical clauses. These clauses help to design and implement relevant policies and processes for improving the management system. They guide in identifying the potential risk factors and preventing them from taking place. To act against the threat factors, a company must prepare precautionary measures.

Every business organization is vulnerable towards unforeseen dangers. Unwanted situations brought by natural calamities, resource hazards, technical glitches, cyber crimes, and many other risks disrupt business operations. As a result, companies often face government intervention, lose their reputation, and customer base. ISO 22301 has a comprehensive protocol, which not only helps to recover but also highlights the possible adverse situation and their outcome. Originally developed in 2012, the standard went through many amendments. The final revision was done in 2019, which focuses on issues like biohazards and cyber manipulations.

ISO 22301 certification standard supports sustainable growth. Hence, the framework it has designed promotes a positive work culture. It asks for stakeholder proactivity and participation in decision-making.

Certification Process

  1. 1. Internal audit – The audit checks the performance of the quality management system after it goes through a modification phase. It helps to find areas of possible improvement. Thus, allowing the management to implement better corrective measures to meet the clauses of the ISO standard.
  2. 2. Request generation – Relevant strategies are applied after checking the gaps between the system and the objectives. Once the compliance ground is accomplished, companies must choose a reliable certification body. The further assessments depend on the contract established between the company and the certification authority.
  3. 3. Stage 1 – Audit – As instructed by the certification authority, a third-party team of auditors analyzes the documents of the management process. They check both the compulsory and voluntary standards.
  4. 4. Stage 2 – Audit – At this point, the audit specialists issue reports as deduced from the previous stage. In case there is any nonconformity, the report will highlight that.
