Linking emergency & business continuity management in resilience
Organizational resilience is a chain that links security, emergency management (EM), disaster recovery, business continuity management (BCM) and crisis management. A resilient organization deploys appropriate security, has an I.T. disaster recovery plan, exercises its business continuity plan and has a separate crisis management plan.
But most organizations do not make emergency management plans. Emergency management in the private sector is the weakest link in the resilience chain. That may be because there are substantial differences between emergency management (EM) and business continuity management (BCM) in scope, scale and skills.
