Business Continuity Management (BCM) is an ongoing priority for all financial industry participants and Government departments. Terrorism, SARS, Avian Flu and the impact of the US sub-prime failure and subsequent threat of a global recession are just some of the risks, which could impact the Nigerian economy and could put back the FSS2020 agenda and Millennium goals for many years.
However these risks although Global in nature, should not take precedence over the threats and operational risks that we in business and our Government departments face every day. Therefore it is surprising that despite the acute awareness of the impact of an operational disruption over 80% of Nigerian businesses do not have a continuity policy or plan. And yet the competitive advantage of being able to prove you can recover from an incident far out-ways the cost of implementing a risk management process, and can offer your customers the knowledge that you can be relied upon to deliver when all around you are in a crisis.
Our Vision is to ensure that our clients operate in an environment where a culture of resilience, security and information integrity is embedded.
Given that any business is only as strong as it’s weakest link we will work with you:
- Training your staff in the science and art of business continuity and operational risk management, in some cases this may involve attending BCM Diploma courses at one of the UK’s leading Universities or being mentored to the accreditation standards of the BCMI or BCI
- Assessing your Risks and their impacts, where cost effective solutions cannot be implemented we will train your continuity team in how to minimise both the threat and its impact.
- Training and exercising your incident management and media response teams to ensure that your effective media management following a disruption enhances your reputation.
- We will work with your procurement staff identifying critical suppliers reducing the risk of supply chain disruption whilst also enhancing your supplier relationships and trust.
Our Mission is to ensure that Nigerians have the best opportunity to participate in the vision of our leaders by increasing the ability of every sector to withstand operational disruptions and therefore securing the future for our children.
If You want to set the standard across Africa for operational resilience and information integrity then please contact us. And lets start to work together to build a secure future for your business and your family. So that every day you can wake to a brighter secure and resilient business and the opportunities that being a leader in your sector brings to your door.
