Who it applies to

ISO 22301 applies to organizations that need to guarantee the continuity of critical services in the face of incidents and to demonstrate it to customers, regulators or their own leadership.

What the framework requires

The standard requires establishing a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS): analyzing impact, defining strategies and plans, and testing them periodically.

Clauses 4–10

Context, leadership, planning, support, operation, evaluation and improvement.

Impact analysis (BIA)

Identification of critical processes and their RTO/RPO.

Strategies and plans

Recovery options and continuity plans.

Tests and exercises

Periodic validation that the plans work.

Risks of not acting

  • Stopping critical services without a tested recovery plan.
  • Not sizing the business impact of an interruption.
  • Failing customer or regulator continuity requirements.
  • Depending on informal knowledge during an incident.

The i-Prot proposal

We implement the BCMS: impact analysis, strategies, continuity and recovery plans, and tests. We prepare the organization for the certification audit, integrated into the CGF cycle.

How it connects with CGF

CGF uses ISO 22301 as a source of requirements. This framework mainly covers the Assess, Design, Operate & measure, and Improve stages of the cycle.

Complyze and ISO 22301

Complyze centralizes the BIA, the continuity plans, the test results and the evidence, with the BCMS status visible over time.
