Building Resilience in the Energy and Utility Sector with World-Leading BCMS
Energy and utility companies have a significant role in national critical infrastructure. They provide and deliver services that customers are heavily dependent on, such as gas, water, electricity, sewer, trash, and recycling. Operational disruptions, including equipment failures, supply chain shortages, and labour strikes, can lead to service disruptions, safety hazards, and financial losses.
Players in the energy and utility industry need comprehensive business continuity plans (BCPs) to fulfil their responsibility and mission to provide - no downtime is expected or tolerated.

Planning for Business Continuity in the Energy and Utility Sector
Effective BC planning involves establishing critical functions, identifying potential risks and vulnerabilities, creating response plans by prioritising resources for quick recovery, training employees, and testing the plans regularly. Without a strategic approach in place, businesses may find it challenging to recover from crises, leading to significant financial losses, reputational damage, and even business failure.

As energy and utility companies work closely with and rely on external suppliers, a comprehensive BCM software tool can help build and manage robust supply chain resilience plans on a 24/7 basis and in the face of any risk that has the potential to cause disruptions.
Enhancing Crisis Communication for the Energy and Utility Industry
Any disruption to operations could cause a devastating impact on another hugely valuable asset to a business – its reputation. Energy and utility suppliers should focus on crisis communications as a part of their business continuity efforts to ensure that the company is prepared to act immediately in the case of any incident which may cause reputational damage.
