Who is BCM for? Is it only for large corporations?
It is a common preception that BCM is only suitable for large organizations or organizations with high financial turnovers. Medium to small companies do not need BCM. This is a wrong preception. This is like saying only large organization's need to purchase insurance.
The principles and practices of BCM is applicable to organization's of all types and sizes. It is suitable for commercial and non commercial or governmental organizations. The amount of money and effort spend on an organization's BCM is directly proportional to the impact of its disruption.
In fact a small organization with just 10 staff members can only implement BCM if they wanted to.
BCM is an issue of organizational sustenance, of corporate governance and of corporate responsibility.
