About Continuity Matters
At Continuity Matters, we specialize in delivering top-notch consulting services tailored to enhance your organisation's resilience. Our expertise lies in helping businesses anticipate, prepare for, respond to, and adapt to both gradual shifts and sudden disruptions, ensuring their continued success and growth.
The team at Continuity Matters brings extensive experience across various industries, including health, construction, mining, services, science and technology, manufacturing and APRA regulated entities.
Our services include establishing a sustainable governance framework that supports the development or enhancement of a Business Resilience Program, its maintenance during business-as-usual (BAU) operations and in the event your organisation suffers a crisis. We assist APRA-regulated entities to address the new CPS 230 regulations, ensuring their compliance prior to June 2025, when they become effective. The standard emphasizes the role of third-party service providers. As Australian organisations increasingly rely on cloud services, it is crucial to address this dependency during the development of Business Continuity Plans.
We develop comprehensive Crisis Management Plans, Business Continuity Plans and IT Disaster Recovery Plans, along with their supporting documentation. Our approach includes improving crisis management skills and validating these plans through rigorous exercises.
We review and update your IT Disaster Recovery Plans. It is essential that as part of the development of a BCP, the recoverability of critical IT applications is addressed. Often, we find that IT systems cannot be recovered in the required time.
Our approach to improving resilience advocates a “crawl, walk, run” method, emphasizing gradual improvement over perfection.
Emerging risks such as cyber hacking and climate change demand increased vigilance. Cybercriminals continue to target Australian organisations, making even the most prepared entities vulnerable. We urge business leaders to actively engage in managing these risks and participate in crisis management.
Climate change introduces both transitional and physical risks. Australia’s geographical remoteness adds vulnerabilities related to extended supply chains susceptible to climatic disruptions.
At Continuity Matters, we are dedicated to empowering organisations to build resilience, adapt to change, and thrive in a continually evolving business landscape.
