Business Continuity Management is about identifying those parts of your business that you cannot afford to lose.  Such as stock, premises, information, staff - and planning how to maintain these if an incident occurs.

Any incident whether it is large or small, natural accident or deliberate can cause major disruption to your business however, by planning in advance you will be able to resume your day to day business sooner.  Delays could mean you lose valuable business to your competitors or your customers may lose faith in you and take their custom elsewhere.

BCM is about safeguarding your business.
