This paper focuses on business continuity management in organizations that use modern e-business technologies: the Internet, mobile computing, e-services, and virtual infrastructure. The aim is to make the shift from traditional Business Continuity Management (BCM) towards ?e-Business Continuity Management? (e-BCM) suitable for modern technological environments. We have defined a comprehensive framework for the implementation of an adaptive e-BCM adjustable to changes in the business environment. The framework consists of practical steps for defining elements of a business continuity management system: business impact analysis, risk assessment, and a business continuity plan. We have implemented and evaluated the framework within three financial organizations. The key finding is that Business Impact Analysis and the continual improvement of the Business Continuity Management System are the driving factors for the effective establishment of an adaptive e-BCM. The proposed framework is general, and can be applied to any organization that uses modern e-business technologies.

Abstract The high frequency of shipping in Indonesia is directly proportional to the increase of port activities. Along with the activities, the risk of disruption that might occur also increase. The impact of a disruption can be detrimental to many parties such as crew, company, ship, cargo carried, and environment. During the COVID-19 pandemic, ports are encouraged to develop a plan that could minimize the disruption of the role that port play in keeping trade flowing and vital supplies moving. The possible impact from COVID-19 related disruption urges companies to apply the Business Continuity Management (BCM) system to deal with any potential disruption that might occur. This paper tries to identify and rank each potential disruption from COVID-19 based on severity & occurrence, House of Risk method was used with the aid of questionnaires and interviews. Furthermore, business impact analysis is conducted in order to analyse the impact of COVID-19 pandemic and how BCM helps to minimize the potential loss.

Abstract Organizations are increasingly subject to hazardous events and threats, which can be critical for their business operations and performance. Any natural, accidental, or deliberate incidents that happen to the organization can cause major disruptions to it. The present paper aims to examine the prerequisites for a sound business impact analysis necessary to build the organization’s business continuity management capability and ensure business resilience. It is meant to discover those critical functions and resources which are vital to business operations in a sample of small and medium-sized enterprises from a certain geographic area in Romania, in order to maintain their core operations and ensure business continuation. The research results rely on the data collected through face-to-face interviews from 119 Romanian companies. The research findings of the multiple linear regression employed indicate that, in undertaking business impact analysis for business continuity, it is vital for enterprises to identify the skills and level of expertise required from staff to carry out organization’s critical activities. Also it is critical for companies to identify alternative premises and systems and means of voice and data communication, as well as the priority suppliers/partners whom they depend on, necessary to undertake their critical activities. The study contributes to the literature by providing empirical evidence on the prerequisites of the organization’s business impact analysis that are critical to build a strong business continuity management capability. It also offers new insights to companies meant to generate a better understanding of current practices of undertaking a business impact analysis for business continuation in their organizations.
