ISO 22301:2019 is the ultimate standard for business continuity, proving your commitment to resilience. Fixinc helps organisations achieve and maintain certification with tailored frameworks, training, and expert guidance.

Achieving ISO 22301:2019 accreditation helps organisations align with global business continuity standards. Certification demonstrates a commitment to resilience, risk management, and operational excellence in the face of disruptions.

## Discipline Modules

To support organisations in achieving true resilience, Fixinc provides 10 ISO 22301:2019 disciplines that ensure resilience when validated annually. Each discipline can be adopted individually, but in most cases will form the majority of your ISO 22301:2019 program with Fixinc. When you first engage Fixinc, they review the progress of each discipline within your organisation to determine your current capability.

- *ISO22301-Aligned BIA Review*: A Business Impact Analysis is the foundation of your continuity program. This module reviews your existing BIA and aligns it to the structure, expectations, and audit criteria of ISO 22301.

- *ISO22301-2019 Internal Audit Support*: Internal audits are your best opportunity to improve. This module supports your ISO 22301 internal audit process with structure, independence, and a clear path to action.

- *BCMS Policy and Framework Review*: Strong continuity programs start with purpose. This module reviews and sharpens your BCMS policy and framework, aligning it to ISO 22301 and the real-world risks your organisation faces.

- *ISO22301-2019 Risk and Opportunity Assessment*: Resilience is about identifying opportunity alongside managing risk. This module aligns your continuity planning with ISO 22301 by assessing risks, capitalising on strengths, and prioritising actions that matter under pressure.

- *ISO22301-2019 Documented Information Review*: In ISO 22301, it is not enough to do the work; you have to prove it. This module reviews every piece of documented information to ensure it meets the structure, control, and clarity expected in a formal audit.

- *ISO 22301 Gap Assessment*: You cannot meet the standard if you do not know where you stand. This module gives your team a clear, detailed view of how close you are to ISO 22301 compliance, mapped against every clause, obligation, and best-practice requirement.

- *ISO22301-2019 Evidence Gathering Workshop*: This module walks your team through exactly what evidence ISO auditors expect and how to collect, document, and structure it so nothing gets missed during review.

- *ISO23301-2019 Audit Readiness Walkthrough*: This module walks your team through the ISO 22301 audit process, helping you prepare your evidence, structure your responses, and build trust with your assessor.

- *ISO22301-2019 Corrective Action Implementation Support*: Finding gaps is only half the job; closing them is where the real work begins. This module helps your team implement corrective actions quickly, clearly, and in a way that actually sticks.

- *ISO22301-2019 Post-Audit Resilience Improvement Plan*: An audit is a milestone, not the finish line. This module turns ISO 22301 audit results into a clear, actionable improvement plan that strengthens your resilience year after year.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What is ISO 22301:2019, and why is it important?**

ISO 22301:2019 is an international standard for business continuity management, ensuring organisations can effectively respond to and recover from disruptions, safeguarding operations and reputation. Obtaining any ISO standard is evidence of your commitment to running a sustainable business. The standard is a competitive and practical step in ensuring true resilience.

**What are the key components of ISO 22301?**

The standard focuses on risk assessment, business continuity planning, training, validation, and continuous improvement to ensure a comprehensive approach to resilience.

**Who should pursue ISO 22301 certification?**

Any organisation that values resilience, continuity, and stakeholder trust can benefit, especially those in critical industries like finance, healthcare, and technology. Typically, the financial commitment and resources required means this standard is isolated to larger, multi-national businesses. However, Fixinc is able to provide programs that replicate the standard for smaller operations. Whilst this will not establish the certification ISO provides, it will provide you the maturity to deal with any disruption.

**How long does it take to achieve ISO 22301 certification?**

The timeline varies based on the organisation's size and readiness. Most businesses take 6-12 months to prepare and complete the process. You should expect at least 2 years to ensure a consistent, momentum-driven approach to the standards set out in ISO 22301:2019.

**How do we begin working with your organisation?**

Fixinc starts with an initial consultation to understand your needs and objectives through a 45-minute discovery call. This is followed by a digital proposal outlining recommended services, approach, timeframes, and investment required. A detailed project plan is then developed based on agreed priorities. Once signed, an engagement meeting is conducted within a 4-week window, and then the program begins.

**How do you ensure program adoption across the organisation?**

Fixinc uses a combination of engagement strategies, including stakeholder workshops, training sessions, communication campaigns, and practical exercises to build awareness and capability across all levels of the organisation. They build relationships with key team members through email campaigns, one-on-one meetings, and LinkedIn connections to build trust and uncover ideas from all colleagues.

**What makes Fixinc different from other resilience solutions?**

Fixinc believes that resilience can be a simple, modern skill developed through building a culture of resilience and removing the noise of bulky plans and poor technology. Their programs focus on simplicity rather than creating fear through marketing about evolving threat landscapes.

**What information do you need from us to get started?**

Initially, Fixinc needs to understand your current resilience capabilities, regulatory obligations, key risks, and strategic objectives. A detailed information request is provided once the scope of engagement is agreed via the client portal.

**How do you determine the cost of your services?**

Pricing is based on the scope of services required, organisation size, and complexity of requirements. All activities start from a base investment that can be shared. Detailed proposals with clear deliverables are provided, and engagements can be structured to align with budget constraints. Typically, Fixinc's client base has an annual business continuity budget of USD 45,000 or an entire resilience program of between USD 55,000 and USD 100,000.

**What types of organisations do you typically work with?**

Fixinc specialises in serving medium to large-sized organisations across New Zealand, Australia, and Malaysia (the Oceania and ASEAN regions), in both public and private sectors.
