These are our company objectives and policy statement if that helps:

Objectives

To ensure that ACME has a workable continuity plan that will enable acceptable standards of service to be provided to business critical groups within defined and agreed timescales, following either the total and/or partial loss of vital services or facilities.

To establish an effective 'crisis management’ and communications structure that will operate in the event of a disaster at ACME.

To establish a process for developing, maintaining and testing business continuity plans.

Policy Statement

In line with management best practice, ACME is committed to reducing business risk to acceptable levels wherever possible. To ensure that the group as a whole remains viable in the event of disaster ACME must maintain a business continuity plan, describing the actions to be taken in the event of crisis or disaster. Priorities and time scales for recovery must be agreed within the business and must be clearly identified and included in the plan. The plan must be subjected to periodic testing.

Hi, th strategy for BCMS is composed of a set of recovery options to be utilized as alternatives in the event that existing critical resources become unavailable.
This helps to provide a high-level overview of the areas that must be addressed within the document as it is being created and maintained.
ISO 22301 Certification certainly develops credibility and the organization’s reputation
