In short

ISO 22301 certification in New York at a glance

New York firms learn about continuity from their customers. A trading counterparty asks how long a vendor can be offline, a food distributor in the Bronx explains how a cold-chain failure would be handled, and a carrier is asked what happens when a terminal closes. ISO 22301 gives these answers a structure: a business impact analysis, recovery strategies, documented plans and exercises that are actually carried out. Financial services, port and airport logistics and Hunts Point food trade are the sectors where the question comes up most. Sterling's New York office facilitates the analysis workshops, drafts the plans, runs the first exercise with the team and prepares management review before an accredited certification body audits the system. Local questions follow.

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 New York: questions clients ask

Which New York risks make business continuity planning practical?

Dependence on shared infrastructure: terminals, airports, the produce and fish markets at Hunts Point and dense office buildings. A disruption at any of them can interrupt several firms at once, so a continuity plan that names alternative sites, suppliers and communications is more than paperwork.

What does ISO 22301 certification show a New York client?

It shows that an accredited certification body found a business continuity management system in place and working: impact analysis, strategies, plans and exercises. Clients such as banks can read that as evidence of resilience when they review a supplier, although the certificate is not a guarantee of any particular recovery time.
