In short

ISO 22301 certification in Nagoya at a glance

A single stamping press, a ceramic furnace, a berth crane: in Aichi's tightly timed supply chains, one failure can ripple through factories and across oceans. The Port of Nagoya moves cargo for vehicle makers, machinery builders and energy importers, and customers want to know what happens if a facility, system or route goes down. ISO 22301 turns that anxiety into a management system: business impact analysis, risk assessment, continuity strategies and plans, exercises and testing, and review. Sterling serves Nagoya from its Tokyo office, facilitates the impact analysis with operations leads, keeps plans and exercise records in Effivity, and prepares an accredited certification body's audit.

Requirements

What ISO 22301 requires

Strip away the vocabulary and ISO 22301 requires a company to prove six things about how it keeps operating when something goes wrong.

You know what must keep runningA business impact analysis identifies your priority activities and how quickly each one must be resumed after disruption.
Leadership owns continuityTop management sets continuity policy and objectives, assigns roles and backs the programme with people and budget.
You assessed what could disrupt youRisks of disruption to priority activities, and to the resources they depend on, are assessed and treated.
Plans are written and readyResponse and recovery plans, and a defined incident response structure, exist for the scenarios that matter most to you.
You have tested themPlans are exercised, and lessons from exercises and real incidents are fed back into them.
You keep the programme currentContinuity performance is evaluated, internal audits and management reviews take place, and the programme improves over time.

ISO 22301 in Nagoya: questions clients ask

Why do Aichi suppliers ask about business continuity?

Because vehicle and aircraft lines run on tightly timed deliveries, so one supplier's outage can stop a customer's production. Buyers therefore ask how long a supplier could be down, what the fallback is and when it was last tested. ISO 22301 gives a recognised way to show that.

What would a sensible first scope be for a Nagoya supplier?

The product line or service whose interruption would hurt customers fastest, with its key site, systems, people and sub-suppliers. A business impact analysis for that scope reveals single points of failure. Expanding the system later is easier than starting wide and never exercising the plans.
