Why expert advice is worth having

Organisations rarely fail ISO 22301 because the standard is hard. They fail because the evidence does not match what the auditor asks for.

1

It has to survive after we leave

A ISO 22301 system that only works while a consultant is on site fails its first surveillance audit. We build it so your own people can run it, and train them to do so.

2

Findings get closed, not logged

Most ISO 22301 audits produce findings. What matters is whether they are closed with genuine corrective action or papered over, because the next auditor reads the last report first.

3

Experience across sectors

Having implemented ISO 22301 in very different operating environments, we can tell you quickly which of your worries are real and which are inherited from someone else's situation.

4

Surveillance never stops

A ISO 22301 certificate is the start of a three year cycle, not the end of a project. Building for the surveillance audits from day one costs far less than rebuilding before each one.

What ISO 22301 is worth to you

Certification is a commercial decision before it is a technical one. This is where the return usually shows up.

Continuity Clauses Satisfied

Banks, telecom operators and large enterprises write continuity obligations into supply agreements and then ask for certified evidence of them.

Downtime Cost Quantified

Knowing what an hour of outage genuinely costs turns continuity spending into an arithmetic decision rather than an argument.

Recovery Roles Assigned

Named responsibilities and call trees mean the first hour of a disruption is spent responding, not deciding who is in charge.

Whole Organisation Scope

Certification covers people, premises, suppliers and technology together, unlike technology only arrangements that leave the rest of the business exposed.

ISO 22301 questions we are asked most

What does ISO 22301 actually require from us?

You will need a defined scope, documentation that reflects actual practice rather than intent, evidence the system has been operating for a reasonable period, trained staff, and at least one internal audit and management review on file.

What is a realistic timeline for ISO 22301?

Most ISO 22301 projects run three months or so. The single biggest variable is not the standard, it is how fast your team can be freed up for training and internal audit alongside their normal work.

Do you issue the ISO 22301 certificate yourselves?

No, and no consultant should. The certificate comes from an independent accredited certification body after their own audit. We prepare you to pass it and we are there on the day to close findings. That separation is exactly what makes the certificate worth holding.

What does ISO 22301 consultancy cost?

It depends on your headcount, how many sites are in scope and how much of a system already exists, so we quote after a short conversation rather than publishing a figure that would be wrong for most readers. Scope, timeline and fees come to you in writing first.

Which industries need ISO 22301?

We map ISO 22301 to 8 sectors and it sits in our business continuity management practice. Organisations usually arrive because a specific buyer, regulator or tender committee has asked. Tell us who is asking and we will confirm whether this is the standard that satisfies them.

Do you have to visit our premises?

Remote delivery covers most of a ISO 22301 project comfortably. We recommend onsite presence for the initial assessment and for the certification audit, where being in the room genuinely changes the outcome.
