Operational Risk and Business Continuity Toolkit front cover

About this toolkit

A practical operations toolkit that helps managers use evidence, create consistent standards and turn findings into owned action. Prepare the operation to respond before disruption becomes a crisis.

What this toolkit helps you achieve

  • Identify and prioritise operational risks
  • Define prevention, response and recovery controls
  • Test continuity arrangements before they are needed

What’s included

  • A four‐part continuity cycle: Identify, Assess, Prepare, Test
  • The Five Golden Rules of operational risk and business continuity, on one page
  • A plain‐English guide to the four pillars: Risk Identification, Impact and Likelihood Assessment, Mitigation and Continuity Planning, Testing and Review
  • A worksheet and checklist for building and maintaining a risk register
  • A twelve‐question coaching bank for the conversation around identifying, assessing and preparing for risk

Contents are shown for review while the toolkit package completes verification.

Best for

Owners and operations leaders identifying critical risks and continuity responses.

Expected practical outcome

Keep it proportionate. Name the risks that could genuinely disrupt the operation, assess them honestly, prepare plans that match the scale of the risk, and actually test the ones that matter most, rather than building an elaborate register for its own sake.
