Business continuity management in Malaysia

Crisis Management Centre helps organisations plan how essential products, services and functions will continue during disruption. The work covers priorities, dependencies, recovery arrangements, decision roles and exercises.

Scope

Business continuity arrangements should reflect the organisation’s size, obligations, resources and operating conditions. A single template is not suitable for every organisation.

What the work covers

A clear operating structure for preparation and response.

01

Business impact analysis

We work with business units to identify important activities, operational dependencies and the consequences of interruption. The analysis supports decisions about recovery priorities and acceptable service levels.

02

Continuity strategies

We document practical options for people, premises, technology, suppliers, information and alternative working arrangements. Proposed strategies are reviewed against available resources and operational constraints.

03

Plans and response procedures

We develop or update business continuity plans, activation criteria, team responsibilities, contact arrangements and recovery checklists. Plans can be linked to crisis management, emergency response and technology recovery procedures.

04

Exercises and improvement

Tabletop exercises and simulations test whether plans can be used under realistic conditions. Findings are translated into assigned actions, plan updates and future training requirements.

Questions

Before you engage the Centre.

What is the difference between crisis management and business continuity?

Crisis management focuses on leadership, coordination and decisions during a serious incident. Business continuity focuses on maintaining or restoring priority activities. The two should work together.

Is business continuity the same as disaster recovery?

No. Disaster recovery generally focuses on restoring technology and data. Business continuity also considers people, locations, suppliers, manual workarounds, communications and operational priorities.

Can the work align with ISO 22301?

Yes. The scope can be structured with reference to ISO 22301 and the organisation’s existing management systems. This does not itself constitute certification or guarantee that a certification body will find the organisation compliant.

How often should a continuity plan be tested?

The schedule should reflect the organisation’s risk profile, obligations and rate of change. Plans should also be reviewed after major organisational changes, exercises and actual incidents.
