Build a certified continuity program that helps your organization withstand and recover from disruption.
ISO 22301 provides a structured way to manage business continuity through a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS). Nexeris helps you design and implement a BCMS that fits how you operate and prepares you for certification.

Strategic Value
Why ISO 22301 Matters
Most organizations plan for disruption, but few have a continuity system that’s consistent, tested, and measurable.
ISO 22301 helps you move from ad hoc recovery plans to a BCMS that defines priorities, responsibilities, strategies, and continuous improvement. It strengthens resilience, supports customer expectations, and reduces confusion when real incidents happen.
Common reasons teams engage us:
- Customers or partners require stronger continuity assurances
- Leadership wants clearer recovery priorities and accountability
- You need a formal system that is tested and maintained over time
- You want certification readiness without building unnecessary bureaucracy
Your ISO 22301 Engagement Includes
You’ll get a workable BCMS aligned to ISO 22301 requirements, including continuity priorities, playbooks, testing, and the governance needed to maintain the program.

Common Questions
What is a BCMS?
A Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) is the set of policies, processes, roles, and plans used to ensure critical functions can continue during disruptions.
Do we need a BIA to implement ISO 22301?
A BIA is a common input because it establishes continuity priorities and recovery targets. If you don’t have one, we can incorporate BIA work as part of the implementation.
Is ISO 22301 only for IT disaster recovery?
No. It covers business continuity across people, processes, facilities, vendors, and technology recovery.
How do you test continuity plans for ISO 22301?
We recommend tabletop exercises and controlled tests that validate decisions, communications, and recovery assumptions, then update the program based on results.
Who performs the certification audit?
An accredited certification body performs the external audit. We help you prepare, but we are not the certifier.
