SECTION 1: CONTINUITY AND RESILIENCE Continuity and Resilience (CORE), provides services in the niche area of Business Continuity Management (BCM) Consulting, Implementation, Testing, Assessment, Assurance and Audit. Rather than straddle multiple domains such as Information Security, IT Service Management etc, we have chosen to be specialists in BCM and BCM only, even though our Consultants hold certifications in many other associated domains. Our Consultants have worked with professionals from India, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Lebanon, Iran and Mauritius. Our consultants and instructors have conducted a number of consulting assignments and helped many of our customers to be ISO 22301 or NCEMA 7000 compliant, and in many cases to be ISO 22301 certified. We have also facilitated over 180 workshops/assignments and interacted with over 2000 professionals across the world. In terms of ISO 22301/ NCEMA 7000, we have significant competencies, unique perhaps compared to anyone else in the market. We are one of very few organisations whose consultants have participated as invitees in over 40 ISO 22301/ BS 25999 certification audits. This is a unique skill which gives us a good understanding of the ISO 22301 certification process and requirements. We are ourselves ISO 22301 certified as an organisation, possibly the only consulting company in the region to be ISO 22301 certified. Our consulting capabilities are significantly enhanced by our continuous learning as part of our training engagements - Around 6 of our consultants are BCI certified to teach the CBCI certification and other workshops. Our consultants are also IRCA approved instructors to teach the IRCA approved ISO 22301 Lead Auditor workshop. All our consultants have typically been BC practitioners in industry, so they have themselves implemented ISO 22301 in their own organisations before joining us as consultants. All these are reasons why we do a very high quality BCM consulting - references available on request. CORE has been associated with NCEMA (BCM regulator in UAE). It has worked on various assignments. We need to adhere to the confidentiality agreement we have signed with NCEMA. We will be happy to provide the contact coordinates in NCEMA should you require more details of the work done. Let us know if you need us to put you in touch with any of our references. At Continuity and Resilience, the approach is to utilize our collective experience of over 140 man-years in order to assist our clients to implement BCM more efficiently and effectively than they are likely to be able to do themselves. We have made our share of mistakes and learned from them, and over time, have developed better, smarter and faster ways of deploying BCM. By virtue of our exposure to industry best practices across various industries, geographies, and organization cultures, we are able to utilize BCM best practices and define the most appropriate method of deployment to rapidly and effectively implement a reliable and robust BCM framework for our clients. And since in today’s world time is money, time saved automatically translates into money saved. BCM being a specialized activity, smart organizations choose to save money by outsourcing either the whole or parts of their BCM initiative to CORE. Continuity and Resilience is committed to helping BCM and DR practitioners raise the professional standards and competency levels. Continuity and Resilience (CORE) represents the UK-based Business Continuity Institute (www.thebci.org), which is a global leader in training and certifications in the domain of Business Continuity. The BCI is truly a global BCM institute, with over 8000+ members across more than 100 countries. The slogan of the BCI is “Promoting the art and science of Business Continuity Worldwide”, and this is truly what it encourages. Established over 15 years ago, the BCI now offers 6 levels of membership ranging from the FBCI to the ABCI, Affiliate and Student Memberships – something for all. Given the benefits and member resources that BCI offers, there is a membership charge, which is well compensated by the benefits of BCI membership – which we can provide to you on request. Continuity and Resilience differentiates itself by having a pool of Consultants who are highly regarded BC and DR professionals. We offer a full range of quality BC and IT DR services, covering assessment, training, certification, consulting, assurance and improvement. In less than three years, we have trained /

certified more than 2000 professionals from over 20 countries. They come from over 590 companies in industries ranging from Technology (IT), Telecom, Banking & Finance, Oil & Gas, Healthcare, Utilities, Manufacturing, Government, Real Estate, and Insurance etc.
