With our ISO 22301 Gap Analysis you will be provided with an informed assessment of the:
- Gaps in your business continuity management arrangement against the best practice standard, ISO 22301
- Proposed scope of your business continuity management system (BCMS)
- Internal resource requirements for successfully deploying a BCMS project
- Potential timeline to achieve certification readiness.
What your Gap Analysis with IT Governance will deliver
An ISO 22301 specialist will interview key managers, assess your current BCM arrangements and review your existing BCM policies and procedures for relevancy, effectiveness and efficiency to determine any potential areas for improvement against the requirements of ISO 22301.
You will then receive a gap analysis report that collates the findings of this assessment. The report will detail areas requiring compliance and improvement, as well as providing further recommendations for compliance with ISO 22301.

The gap analysis report includes:
- An analysis of the overall state and maturity of your business continuity arrangements;
- Specific details of the gaps between the current business continuity arrangements and the requirements of ISO 22301;
- Options for the scope of an effective ISO 22301-compliant BCMS, and how these options help to meet your business and strategic objectives;
- An action plan that outlines and indicates the level of internal management effort required to implement and maintain an ISO 22301-compliant BCMS; and
- A compliance status report (red/amber/green) against the management system clauses (clause-by-clause), as well as the business continuity controls (control-by-control) described in ISO 22301:2012.
What makes a customised gap analysis more effective?
A customised gap analysis performed by one of our ISO 22301 specialists provides you with a high level of expert analysis and detailed insights that you wouldn’t receive with a questionnaire-based gap analysis.
With an in-person gap analysis you will:
- Have a clear idea of the proposed scope for your BCMS project
- Be able to set informed and realistic project expectations based on the specific requirements of your organisation
- Obtain detailed and customised information necessary to develop a strong business case for implementing an ISO 22301-compliant BCMS
Conditions
- The price quoted is applicable for organisations with up to 250 employees and one major site (location).
- If your business is located outside mainland UK (England, Scotland and Wales), additional expenses will be charged to accommodate our consultant’s travel for the on-site assessment.
- The time required to complete the gap analysis often depends on the size and complexity of the organisation , but the final report will normally be delivered within ten working days of the initial site visit(s)/online assessment. If the exercise is likely to take longer than this because of organisational complexity, we will tell you at the outset.
