BSI has published a white paper that explores the role of metrics in the ISO 22301 business continuity standard and aims to help people understand the standard’s BCM measurement requirements.

The executive summary of the 'Measurement matters: the role of metrics in ISO 22301' white paper states that ISO 22301 recognizes the importance of having accurate performance information, laying down requirements for ‘monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation’. However, the emphasis on monitoring performance, measurement and metrics in ISO 22301 has caused confusion in some organizations. This whitepaper clarifies the requirements around measurement in ISO 22301. In addition three BSI clients describe how they have approached these requirements.
