Overview
This package equips a certification body to certify ISO 22301:2019 business continuity management systems under ISO/IEC 17021-1:2015, with BCMS auditor competence requirements drawn from ISO/IEC TS 17021-6. The audit has a distinct evidence base: business impact analysis, risk assessment, the continuity strategies chosen from them, and the exercise and testing programme showing the arrangements were rehearsed. The auditor guidance is written around that sequence, so audits examine capability rather than the existence of a plan document.
Behind the audit sits everything needed to run the scheme. The quality manual establishes governance, impartiality and the body's own management system; the scheme document defines the ISO 22301 programme. Procedures handle application, review, audit time and contract; audit programme management and planning; initial certification across Stage 1 and Stage 2, then surveillance and recertification audits; certification decision, certificate issue and directory entry; special audits, suspension, withdrawal and changes of scope; marks and claims; appeals, complaints, internal audit and management review. An ISO 22301:2019 certification audit checklist, a Stage 1 readiness review checklist and an internal ISO/IEC 17021-1 conformity checklist complete the toolkit.
What this system covers
- Continuity capability auditing — business impact analysis, risk assessment and the strategies derived from them
- Exercising and testing evidence — how a client's exercise programme is evaluated at Stage 2 and in surveillance
- Audit programme and audit time — determined at application review, then planned across the certification cycle
- Decision, certificate and directory — recording the decision and publishing the certified client entry
- BCMS auditor competence to ISO/IEC TS 17021-6 — evaluation and authorisation, course outline, CPD records
- Scheme integrity — special audits, suspension, withdrawal, scope change, marks, claims, complaints and appeals
Who it's for
Established certification bodies adding business continuity to a portfolio that already carries quality, security or safety schemes, and specialist resilience firms building a certification arm. The decision usually follows client demand for ISO 22301 certificates or an accreditation scope extension; the body gains a documented scheme, auditor guidance and competence criteria it can brand and put in front of an assessor.
