Quadrant Knowledge Solutions Reveals that Business Continuity Management Market is Projected to Register a CAGR of 9.80% by 2027.
Business Continuity Management is a critical part of business process management, as it keeps the organization running even after massive disruptions. From its original aim to keep the lights on in the event of a cyberattack or natural disaster, it has now become an integrated discipline that emphasizes multidimensional methods of risk identification, remediation, and executable plans to handle the risk caused by a cyberattack or catastrophe.
A Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a solution that safeguards an organization's resources, such as processes, assets, people, products/services, and ensures operational continuity in the event of a disaster. Modern BCM solutions cover risk identification, risk assessment and remediation, crisis management, disaster recovery, enterprise risk management (ERM), and more to manage and mitigate risks. The solution safeguards organizations from various incidents, such as cyber threats, data breaches, complex business risks, and adverse weather conditions. A BCM platform can cover and coordinate various activities, such as training, emergency notices, conference calls, document management, etc., through a unified, comprehensive platform. The platform can also automate manual, repetitive tasks, thereby saving costs and time. The solution also helps to comply with increasingly stringent regulations such as ISO22301 and FCPA.
A BCM solution is backed by technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for big data analysis to create scenarios in real-time. Risks already posed in the past are automatically integrated with one another to provide a holistic view of the organization's risk landscape while taking into consideration both vertical and transversal scenarios that show interconnections and dependencies with no silos. AI and ML help to process structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data; create disaster recovery plans by considering inefficiencies in the existing systems and processes and calculate the value of the critical assets. The demand and evolution of BCM solutions are set to grow in the future owing to the changing landscape, and the need to meet unique business requirements.
A solution that helps organizations manage business continuity management (BCM) processes, metrics, and compliance effectively. It manages all phases of the BCM lifecycle, from evaluating operational risk and its business impact; to developing, implementing, monitoring, and updating business continuity and disaster recovery plans." A BCM solution enables organizations to effectively respond to operational crises and helps them recover and restore post-crisis to ensure the availability of critical operations across the enterprise.
Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity continue to be integrated and accepted throughout the entire organisation. Additionally, BCM data demonstrate improved Business Continuity Management programme integration with other corporate functions. The areas that have improved the most include crisis/incident management, disaster recovery, emergency management, information technology, and security information.
Crisis planning and response will continue to be significantly impacted by social media.
Social media will remain a significant danger to crisis management and communications, as well as a huge potential. Social media must be accepted and used by organisations as a means of communication before, during, and after an emergency. More involvement from BC staff is needed in the planning and response to security problems, particularly in relation to cloud-based services.
