ISO 22301 certification in Seattle at a glance
Seattle's economy depends on links that must keep moving: the harbour run by the Northwest Seaport Alliance, the rail yards along the Duwamish, the aerospace suppliers around Boeing Field and the technology companies based in the city. ISO 22301 gives each of these a way to prepare. A business impact analysis finds the activities that cannot stop, recovery strategies and plans are written and exercised, and leadership reviews the result. For logistics firms it protects customer commitments, for aerospace suppliers it protects delivery to the prime, and for technology companies it supports enterprise resilience questionnaires. Sterling builds and exercises the system with Seattle teams from its New York office, and an accredited certification body can certify it.

ISO 22301 in Seattle: questions clients ask
Why would a Seattle aerospace supplier adopt ISO 22301?
Because prime contractors expect suppliers to keep delivering after a fire, outage or supplier failure. ISO 22301 helps identify critical processes, sole-source dependencies and recovery priorities, then test the plans so delivery commitments survive a disruption. Exercises matter because untested plans fail at the worst moment.
How does ISO 22301 relate to disaster recovery for IT?
IT disaster recovery is one component. ISO 22301 covers the whole organisation: people, premises, suppliers and information, using impact analysis to set recovery time targets that IT plans then support. Seattle technology firms often start from the IT side and widen the scope.
