Certification
IL’ISO 22301 ensures critical business functions can continue operating during and after a disaster and unexpected disruptive incidents
This standard helps organizations identify and assess potential risks, develop response and recovery plans, and regularly test their effectiveness to maintain operational resilience.
What is ISO 22301?
ISO 22301: “Societal Security — Business Continuity Management Systems — Requirements” is an international standard for business continuity management (BCM). It defines the necessary requirements to plan, establish, implement, operate, monitor, review, maintain, and continuously improve a documented management system aimed at protecting, mitigating, preparing for, responding to, and recovering from disruptive events that could have impacts on an organization.
Its primary goal is to help organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptions that could compromise their operations. The standard ensures that an organization can continue operating or quickly resume operations with minimal impact, after a disruptive event (natural disasters, cyber incidents, economic crises, or other emergency situations).

Our approach to
22301
At GERICO, we help organizations analyze their real needs in crisis situations and develop a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) that ensures critical business operations can continue during and after disruptive events or catastrophic incidents.
Business continuity management is an ongoing process, integrated across multiple levels areas of a company. Business Continuity planning and implementation requires expertise and experience to:
- Identify critical business processes and activities essential for operational stability.
- Assess potential incidents and risks that could disrupt business continuity.
- Mitigate risks and manage their impact by preparing the right personnel, technology, facilities, and suppliers.
- Establish a structured response framework to effectively handle business disruptions.
- Develop and conduct real-world continuity testing to ensure resilience and operational effectiveness.
When major events occur, top management must know how to act, what to communicate, when, and how. Improvisation leads to financial, reputational, and brand damage that many companies struggle to recover from, resulting in customer loss, market share decline, and the destruction of an image built over years of investment.
GERICO supports corporate management in establishing an effective crisis management strategy, including communication and response protocols. This can be integrated into a Business Continuity Plan or developed as a standalone initiative, ensuring organizations are prepared to handle disruptions with confidence and resilience.
