Implementation of a Business Continuity Management System

Implementation year
2012

The Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) aims to manage the operations that identifies the potential threats on the Public Authority for Social Insurance (PASI) of Oman. Considering the core operations in relation to assets, people and operations, there must be plans to build flexible ways to protect the interests of the main stakeholders and the reputation of the Authority.

The project works on providing sustainable plans and updating them to enable the Authority to achieve goals related to business continuity (BC), as follows:

  • Ensure the continuous performance or quick resumption of essential operations during an emergency.
  • Reduce or mitigate disruption of service for beneficiaries.
  • Protect, prevent loss and minimise damage to life, property and other assets.

Establish and implement a thoroughly documented Business Continuity Management System that has the necessary plans and processes in place to maintain the continuity of PASI’s operations in the event of an emergency.
