BUSINESS CONTINUITY
Business Continuity Institute
http://www.thebci.org/
The Business Continuity Institute (BCI) was established in 1994 to enable
members to obtain guidance and support from fellow business continuity
practitioners. Through its Certification Scheme, the Institute provides
internationally recognised status to its members as professional membership
of the BCI demonstrates the members’ competence to carry out business
continuity management (BCM) to a consistent high standard. The BCI has over
3000 members in 75+ countries. The wider role of the BCI is to promote the
highest standards of professional competence and commercial ethics in the
provision and maintenance of business continuity planning and services.
British Damage Management Association
http://www.bdma.org.uk/
Prior to the existence of the BDMA insurers and loss adjusters had no means
of judging the competence and expertise of the recovery and restoration
contractors they appointed. However, in the event of problems arising
after claims have been settled, poor or inappropriate workmanship can leave
insurers open to litigation. Recent laws have specified increasingly
stringent criteria in relation to duty of care issues surrounding the
appointment of contractors. The BDMA is committed to responding to
the insurers’ need for contractors to work to recognised standards.
