In short

ISO 22301 certification in Makati at a glance

In Makati, one flooded basement can stop a hundred companies. The Central Business District packs banks, finance-related firms, multinational offices and shared-services floors into towers that share streets, utilities and risks, and clients overseas expect their service to carry on. ISO 22301 sets the method for business continuity management: an impact analysis to find critical activities, risk assessment, continuity strategies, documented plans, regular exercises and management review. The Philippines page explains how the central bank treats continuity for supervised institutions, and customers add their own requirements. A tenant, bank or outsourcer in the district can use the standard to turn recovery promises into evidence. Sterling's Manila office in Makati runs the analysis and exercises with your teams. An accredited certification body issues the certificate.

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 Makati: questions clients ask

Why is business continuity prominent among Makati firms?

Because a Makati bank, outsourcer or shared-services centre usually serves clients elsewhere who expect service during a typhoon, flood or power failure. Concentration in one district makes shared risks, such as access and utilities, a design point. ISO 22301 supplies the method; no city rule requires it, and the Philippines page covers sector circulars.

Does ISO 22301 mean a company can never be disrupted?

No. It cannot prevent disruptions; it prepares the organisation to respond and recover within agreed targets. It requires an impact analysis, strategies, plans, exercises and review. Certification shows the system exists and works under audit, not that nothing will happen, so clients still check recovery targets.
