In the September/October 2009 issue of Continuity, the BCI Australasian Chapter provided an overview of the draft version of the Business Continuity Standard developed by Standards Australia and Standards New Zealand. The final version of AS/NZS 5050:2010 Business continuity – Managing disruption related risk was delivered to an expectant world on 28 June this year. The BCI was not involved in the development of the Standard, other than providing feedback to Standards Australia on the draft document.
AS/NZS 5050 has undergone several changes in its journey from draft to final status. The draft Standard was in fact three separate documents. The final Standard is now compressed into just one. The previous three draft documents ran to a total of 100 pages, whereas the final version AS/NZS 5050:2010 comes in at a trim 53 pages.
