Minimize the risk of downtime and productivity loss!

What do we offer?

Downtime, equipment failures, or disruptions in the supply chain can halt production and expose the company to losses. An effective Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is not just about protecting operations but also ensuring compliance with regulations and optimizing processes.

We create strategies tailored to the real challenges of manufacturing plants, integrating emergency procedures, IT security, and control systems to effectively minimize risks and enhance business resilience. We develop and implement comprehensive BCP solutions that ensure operational stability and full readiness for any challenge.

See how we support manufacturing plants in ensuring business continuity.

Process Analysis and Identification of Critical Areas

In manufacturing companies, every downtime means losses, which is why the Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is a key step. It helps identify which production, logistics, and operational processes are critical for the stability of the plant. It takes into account the dependencies between processes, internal regulations, and the resources required to maintain continuity of operations.

The result of this analysis is the identification of areas that need to be secured and the determination of critical parameters such as the Minimum Business Continuity Objective (MBCO), Maximum Tolerable Period of Disruption (MTPD), and Recovery Time Objective (RTO).

Risk and Threat Assessment

Manufacturing plants are exposed to specific threats – from machine failures, disruptions in raw material deliveries, to cyberattacks on production control systems. We conduct a detailed risk analysis, considering technical, operational, and environmental factors. We create crisis scenarios to help predict the impact of undesirable events and develop effective protective strategies.

The outcome of this stage is a risk map that identifies the weakest points in production processes and prepares appropriate corrective measures.

A Business Continuity Strategy

For manufacturing companies, a Business Continuity Strategy is not just a document, but a practical plan that minimizes the risk of downtime and losses. Based on BIA (Business Impact Analysis) and risk assessment, we establish priorities for restoring operations, define procedures for emergency situations, and assign responsibilities to specific teams.

As a result, a crisis response model tailored to the realities of the plant is created, which enhances operational resilience and enables quick decision-making.

Business Continuity Plans (BCP) and Emergency Procedures

To ensure business continuity in critical situations, we develop dedicated Business Continuity Plans (BCP) for key areas such as production, logistics, IT, and the supply chain. Each plan includes detailed emergency procedures, operational instructions for teams, and guidelines for communication and coordination of actions. The solutions we prepare are tailored to the specific needs of the plant, enabling smooth implementation in the event of unforeseen disruptions.

By creating these customized plans, we help ensure that your operations can continue with minimal disruption, safeguarding against risks and maintaining stability in your organization.

Tests and Crisis Scenario Simulations

Even the best plan requires verification in practice. That’s why we conduct tests and simulations of various emergency scenarios, such as sudden failure of key machines, disruption in raw material supplies, cyberattacks on production control systems, or supply chain interruptions.

The analysis of the test results allows us to identify potential gaps and improve the plans. The final outcome is a report containing conclusions and recommendations, which enhance the effectiveness of responses in crisis situations.

Implementation and Continuous Improvement

Business continuity in manufacturing companies requires not only the development of plans but also their regular updates and adaptation to changing conditions. After conducting tests, we modify procedures to better respond to real threats. We train teams responsible for crisis response and implement a schedule for periodic reviews of the BCP documentation.

As a result, the company gains an effective and dynamically developed business continuity management system that minimizes the risk of losses and ensures the stability of production processes.

Business Continuity Plans for Manufacturing Companies

Why Is It Worth Creating a Business Continuity Plan (BCP)?

Protect your business

Creating a Business Continuity Plan will ensure your company is prepared for crisis situations. Critical business scenarios will be identified, allowing you to properly train employees, fill security gaps, and ensure necessary resources are in place. This way, even in the event of a crisis, processes can be quickly restored, minimizing losses.

Compliance with legal requirements and partner expectations

Your organization will meet the expectations of stakeholders (e.g., customers, regulators) by ensuring an optimal level of business continuity. Having a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) increases your chances of establishing partnerships with demanding business partners.

How to Write a Business Continuity Plan?

Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is a document that outlines the strategies and procedures to be followed in the event of unexpected situations, such as equipment failures, cyber incidents, natural disasters, or other threats. BCP is crucial for ensuring the continuity of an organization’s operations and minimizing business risks. Below are several steps on how to write a Business Continuity Plan.

Conduct a Preliminary Audit

In this step, the current situation of the organization should be assessed, critical processes and systems identified, and the risks associated with the company’s operations determined. The audit should result in a list of elements that are critical to the company’s operations, their locations, and their priority.

Conduct a Risk Analysis

At this stage, potential threats to critical processes and systems should be identified. Based on the results of the risk analysis, failure scenarios should be developed, and the necessary protective measures should be determined to minimize the risk of failure.

Develop a BCP

Based on the results of the initial audit and risk analysis, a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) strategy should be developed that encompasses critical processes and systems, as well as identified threats. The strategy should describe detailed procedures to be followed in the event of a failure, including an evacuation plan and data recovery procedures.

Develop a BCP

Based on the strategy, a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) should be developed that includes detailed instructions for actions to be taken in the event of a failure. The plan should cover various failure scenarios and outline the steps to be followed to restore business continuity.

Implementation and Testing of the Business Continuity Plan

After developing the Business Continuity Plan (BCP), it must be implemented and tested. The tests should cover various failure scenarios to ensure that the plan works as intended. If errors or issues are identified during testing, changes should be made to the plan, and the tests should be repeated to ensure its effectiveness.

How much does it cost to create a Business Continuity Plan (BCP)?

The cost of creating a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) depends on several factors, such as the size of the organization, the nature of its operations, market environment, regulations, and the complexity of its processes. The number of locations and the expected project timeline are also important, as they affect the cost structure and final price. Each implementation project is individually priced based on the scope of needs and the preferred schedule. The calculation and workload are determined at the beginning of the collaboration.

How long does it take to create a Business Continuity Plan (BCP)?

Creating a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) typically takes anywhere from a few weeks to several months, depending on the size of the organization and the specifics of the project. The implementation schedule is tailored to meet the individual expectations of your organization. The cost calculation and workload are determined at the beginning of the collaboration.

What is the scope of activities when creating a Business Continuity Plan (BCP)?

A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is a comprehensive action plan aimed at minimizing business risks in the event of unexpected situations, such as equipment failures, cyber incidents, natural disasters, or other threats. The scope of activities involved in creating a BCP includes:

A preliminary audit for BCP

It involves analyzing the current situation of the organization, assessing risks, and defining business needs. This is a key stage that allows for the determination of the organization’s requirements and priorities, as well as planning the next steps.

Risk Analysis

The risk assessment and identification process involves evaluating and identifying risks associated with the organization’s operations. In this stage, potential threats are identified, and their impact on business processes is determined. This enables the development of strategies and action plans to address potential disruptions.

BIA Analysis for BCM

BIA (Business Impact Analysis) is the process of analyzing the impact of disruptions on an organization’s business processes. As part of BIA, critical elements of infrastructure, applications, and data are identified, along with the prioritization of business processes. Based on this information, a strategy for restoring the operation of systems and business processes in case of a disruption can be developed. The BIA analysis is crucial to ensure that the Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is properly aligned with the organization’s needs and effectively minimizes business risks.

Implementation of the Business Continuity Plan (BCP)

It involves implementing the action plan developed in the previous stages. It is important that the BCP is comprehensive and takes into account various failure scenarios, such as equipment failures, cyberattacks, natural disasters, as well as evacuation plans and system recovery procedures.

Developing Scenarios

In this stage, specific failure scenarios that may occur are defined, along with action plans for each one. Planning failure scenarios allows for a quick response in the event of problems.

In summary, the scope of activities in creating a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) includes a preliminary audit, risk analysis, BCP implementation, and the development of failure scenarios. All of these stages are critical for minimizing business risks and ensuring the continuity of operations in the event of unexpected situations.
