Speaker:               Margaret Langsett, Virtual Corp.

  

The Business Continuity Maturity Model® (BCMM®) is a free, open access tool created by Virtual Corporation to assist businesses in building and maintaining a sustainable BC program. The BCMM® helps organizations achieve their desired resiliency level by providing answers to the following questions: 

  • Where are we now?
  • Where do we ultimately want to be?
  • Where should we be next? 

The BCMM® provides a consistent, objective means for evaluating a company’s state of preparedness, including evaluation criteria in 8 critical corporate competencies across 6 levels. These competencies address business continuity program considerations including, but not limited to the traditional areas of business recovery, security management, incident management and technology recovery.

 

At this meeting, Margaret Langsett from Virtual Corp. will outline the key elements of the BCMM® , and will take us through a self-assessment process.
