The Business Continuity Programme has been developed by the North West Commissioning Support Unit Resilience Team in collaboration with HMR CCG to increase organisational resilience and ensure that the CCG is ready to respond to and recover from any disruption. As part of the business continuity management programme, there are three key documents 1. Business Continuity Management Policy (attached) 2. Business Continuity Impact and Strategies Toolkit (IST) (attached) 3. Business Continuity Plan (in progress) The Business Continuity Management Policy outlines the CCGs programme for Business Continuity Management (BCM). It is the framework for the development and operation of a business continuity management programme for HMR CCG describes how the Business Continuity Programme will be developed, implemented and maintained. It explains why business continuity is important, the aims and objective, the scope and approach of BCM. The Business Continuity Impact and Strategies Toolkit identify the CCG s key activities/functions; it details the risks on the likelihood of short and long term disruption and the potential impacts CCG key functions. The toolkit also details strategies for dealing with the disruptions such as loss of people, loss of premises, loss of resources and loss of suppliers. Following the completion of the Business Continuity Impact and Strategies Toolkit which analysed the CCGs critical activities, impact of disruption on them, and strategies for dealing with disruption, the CCG Business Continuity Plan will be developed. The Governing Body is asked to approve the content of the HMR CCG Business Continuity Management Policy, Impact and Strategies Toolkit and development of the Business Continuity Plan. The Business Continuity Plan documents the procedures for responding to disruptive incidents affecting it core activities.

7 Business Continuity Management Policy (Draft 0.3) 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Context NHS Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has a leading role in ensuring that healthcare services are provided for the people of Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale. Essentially, the role of the organisation is to buy in or commission services that meet the varying health needs of the local population. These services may be provided by NHS organisations, such as local NHS hospitals and Trusts, or other private and voluntary organisations. Commissioning is a key function of the NHS and CCGs spend about 80% of the NHS annual budget. Given the key role that Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG plays within the local health system, it important that the organisation is able to continue its activities in the face of situations that might be, or could lead to, disruption, loss, emergency or crisis. Under the Civil Contingencies Act (2004), Clinical Commissioning Groups are identified as category two responders. Although the Act places a lesser set of duties upon category two responders than it does upon category one responders, Department of Health and NHS England expects all NHS organisations to plan for and respond to incidents in the same way as category one responders in a manner which is relevant, necessary and proportionate to the scale and services provided 1. Therefore, as well as seeking to maintain and protect its staff, stakeholders, reputation, information, sites, facilities and finances, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG, as an NHS body, also needs to establish effective business continuity arrangements in order to meet the requirements of the national programme for NHS resilience, under which NHS bodies must ensure they have in place appropriate incident response structures and business continuity plans. 1.2 Policy Aim The aim of this policy is to provide a framework for the development and operation of a business continuity management programme for Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG. By implementing this policy, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will demonstrate its commitment to establishing, implementing, reviewing and continually improving business continuity management. The policy sets out the scope of the CCG s arrangements for business continuity management and describes the approach and operational activities (the BCM programme) that Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will implement in order to develop, maintain and improve organisational readiness to respond to and recover from disruption. In the past, organisations in the UK developed their business continuity management in line with BS However, this standard has been replaced by ISO and this policy takes in to account the requirements of the revised international standard for business continuity. 1 NHS England Core Standards for Emergency Preparedness, Resilience and Response 2014 (Page 6 Para 5.3) NHS Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group 5

8 Business Continuity Management Policy (Draft 0.3) 1.3 Definitions Table 1 below provides definitions of key terms used within this policy and in relation to Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG s business continuity arrangements. Table 1: Definitions BC BCM BCMP BCP Business continuity is the capability of the organisation to continue delivery of its products and services at acceptable levels following a disruptive incident. Business continuity management is a holistic management process that provides a framework for building organisational resilience with the capability of an effective response that safeguards the interests of key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value-creating activities. A business continuity management programme is the ongoing management and governance process supported by Top Management and appropriately resourced to implement and maintain BCM. A business continuity plan provides documented procedures that guide the organisation to respond, recover, resume and restore to a predefined level of operation following disruption. (Source: ISO223012) 1.4 Benefits of Business Continuity Management As well as allowing the organisation to fulfil its resilience requirements as an NHS body, implementation of BCM offers Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG a range of benefits: effective business continuity arrangements allow the CCG to continue to meet the needs and expectations of interested parties; a properly implemented business continuity management programme helps the organisation to identify areas of weakness, duplication and inefficiency, which can offer the CCG the opportunity to become more resilient and more cost-effective; correctly implemented, BCM promotes greater staff engagement in the successful running of the CCG as it involves CCG staff in the efforts to enhance the resilience of the organisation; BCM can also be seen as part of the CCG s efforts to fulfil its duty of care to employees, stakeholders and the wider community as it supports the organisation to discharge its duties and maintain employment throughout a period of disruption.

9 Business Continuity Management Policy (Draft 0.3) 2. SCOPE OF CCG BUSINESS CONTINUITY MANAGEMENT 2.1 Priorities By implementing and maintaining a business continuity management programme, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG seeks to achieve the following priorities should a disruptive incident affect the CCG: protect the safety of people employed by or working with the CCG; maintain, recover, resume or restore the CCG s priority activities; protect the interests of CCG stakeholders; protect the CCG s finances, property, resources and reputation. 2.2 Disruptions Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG s BCM policy seeks to address the following disruptions that may arise as a consequence of some form of incident, interruption or termination: Loss of people A range of possible scenarios (e.g. industrial action, severe weather causing transport disruption/closures, an influenza pandemic) could cause the CCG to experience loss of key personnel, knowledge, skills, relationships or contacts Loss of premises Fire, utility failure, civil disorder in a locality or a gas explosion are examples of scenarios that could lead to denial of access to buildings, facilities or accommodation and the inability to undertake CCG activities from a normal place of work Loss of resources Resources that support the CCG s activities, such as IT hardware, IT systems and networks, databases, telephony or other equipment may suffer failure, theft or malicious damage Loss of suppliers Third party providers of goods and services to Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG may experience disruption themselves or may suspend or cease operations for some reason (e.g. bankruptcy, fraud investigation, statutory breach) 2.3 Activities and Locations within Scope This policy will apply to all activities that come under the operations of Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG. However, it is acknowledged that some CCG activities, owing to their more time sensitive nature, will be more susceptible than others to the impacts of a disruptive incident. Therefore, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will undertake analysis of its activities to establish the organisation s prioritised activities. Initial business continuity efforts will be focused on these prioritised activities with other activities falling within scope of the BCM programme in due course. In this way, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will adopt the lifecycle approach to business continuity as recommend by good practice, which will allow the organisation to continually improve its BCM arrangements.

CCG APPROACH TO BUSINESS CONTINUITY MANAGMENT 3.1 Principles The following principles underpin Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG s BCM policy and are the norms to which the organisation aspires: to be successful, business continuity management must be introduced and supported by Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG s Executive Management Team; business continuity is part of everyone s job and must be integrated into core CCG business processes; those that undertake the activities delivered by Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG are best placed to understand the continuity requirements of those activities; Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG s business continuity management programme is a continually evolving process; when a business continuity event occurs, CCG staff may need to work in different ways and/or in different locations than they would normally; business continuity procedures will be sufficiently detailed and clear so that somebody other than the person(s) primarily responsible for the work can follow them; Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will learn from business continuity events and disruptions; the CCG s business continuity management will integrate with the CCG s roles described within the health economy Incident Response Plan. 3.2 Guidelines This policy has been developed with reference to the Business Continuity Institute Good Practice Guidelines Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will operate a business continuity management programme that follows the lifecycle described within the Good Practice Guidelines 2013 (see Appendix 01). Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will also take in to account the business continuity guidance and toolkits on business continuity issued by the NHS England Business Continuity Working Group, coordinated by the National Support Centre. NHS Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group 9

12 Business Continuity Management Policy (Draft 0.3) 3.3 Standards Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will align its business continuity management arrangements with the requirements of the international standard for business continuity, ISO Implementation of this policy will allow Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG to demonstrate its commitment to meeting the CCG business continuity requirements set by NHS England within the Core Standards for emergency preparedness, resilience and response (EPRR) 3.4 BC Objectives In order to implement and maintain an effective business continuity management programme, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will establish and communicate relevant business continuity (BC) objectives. These objectives will be consistent with this policy, be measurable, take into account applicable requirements and be monitored and updated as appropriate. Appendix 03 of this policy provides a template for and examples of BC objectives. 4. OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK 4.1 Resources In order to implement and sustain an effective business continuity management programme, Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will ensure there are suitable financial and operational resources available to the programme. These will include the nomination of an appropriately senior CCG business continuity champion and the approval by senior management for sufficient staff involvement in business continuity programme activities, such as business continuity plan preparation, testing and exercising. 4.2 Processes Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale CCG will implement appropriate processes for business continuity management to ensure that the organisation aligns with good practice and meets the relevant standards for business continuity. These processes will cover the full BCM Lifecycle and will include the following: business impact analysis and risk assessment, taking into account worst case scenarios and the Greater Manchester Community Risk Register; identification of continuity strategies and options; development and implementation of a business continuity plan; integration with existing incident response protocols; training, testing and exercising of business continuity arrangements; embedding business continuity within core CCG business processes, including processes for communication and awareness.

19 Introduction Key to toolkit shading Lighter tan shading indicates text entry is required Darker tan shading indicates a field that will autofill or a dropdown menu Section Guidance CCG Business Continuity Management Programme Impacts and Strategies Toolkit - Completion Notes The information collected in this toolkit will enable the CCG to determine how best it can prepare the organisation to be able to manage disruptions. Review and assesment of the activities undertaken by the CCG is the foundation upon which the organisation's BCM programme is built. Therefore, it is essential that those completing the toolkit, and those who own it, endeavour to make it an accurate description of the CCG's activitites and requirements. Part A CCG Facts Impacts & Strategies Toolkit (IST) Document Control Indicates who completed the toolkit, on what date as well as who the document owner is. It is the responsibility of the document owner to ensure the information about the CCG is accurate and appropriate. Service Facts Provides a brief overview of the CCG including an indication of its primary purpose, the main stakeholders, the number of staff and the locations from which staff work. Part B Main Functions Describes the main functions the CCG undertakes. Also provides estimations of the priority for recovery, the maximum tolerable period of disruption (MTPD) and the recovery time objective (RTO) for the functions listed. The main functions of the CCG should be limited to those undertakings that are central to the CCG's reason for operating. Examples include financial management and contract management. Further examples can be provided by your Local Resilience Manager. The main functions should be agreed and approved by the CCG Accountable Emergency Officer (AEO). Part C (1) Disruption Likelihood, (2) Impacts & Activities, (3) Risk Assessment C1. Disruption Likelihood Lists the key disruptions facing the CCG and provides an assessment of the likelihood of each occuring. Typical risks to plan for include Loss of People, Loss of Premises, Loss of Resources and Loss of Suppliers. For each type of loss, consideration should be given to the likelihood of both short term and medium to long term disruption. When considering the likelihood you can use the NPSA risk scoring matrix for guidance (provided with this toolkit). You should consider factors specific to your CCG including physical location i.e. your building may be in a flood area. Your Local Resilience Manager will be able to provide you with advice based on the Greater Manchester Community Risk Register. C2. Impacts of Disruption to Most Urgent CCG Functions Copyright Greater Manchester Commissioning Support Unit Completion Notes

20 CCG Business Continuity Management Programme Impacts and Strategies Toolkit - Completion Notes The functions identified as 'Most Urgent CCG Functions' in Part B should be copied and pasted to this section of Part C so that an assessment can be made of the impacts over time that would result from their loss or disruption. When considering the level and types of impact you can use the NPSA risk scoring matrix for guidance (provided with this toolkit). Your Local Resilience Manager can also support you with this process. C2. Activities that support Most Urgent Functions Provides a summary of the activities that contribute to the delivery of processes and services identified as 'Most Urgent CCG Functions'. Part D C3. Risk Assessment The Risk Assessment is a calculation based on the likelihood (short term and medium to long term) multiplied by the highest impact over time. The Level of Risk will be automatically populated from the information entered in earlier tabs (Part C1 and Part C2). This should help with prioritising mitigation activities and inform the content of the Business Continuity Plan. The thresholds for Risk Assessment Levels (Red, Amber, Green) are based on the NPSA Model Matrix (provided with this toolkit). However, this is a suggestion only and can be adjusted to suit your CCG requirements as required. Your Local Resilience Manager can support you with this if required. Requirements & Dependencies Requirements to maintain activities supporting Most Urgent Functions Gives an indication of requirements in terms of people, premises, resources and suppliers that are needed to maintain the Most Urgent CCG Functions. Dependencies Describes the main activity dependencies, both external and internal. Part E Continuity Strategies Identifies possible options for reducing the impact of loss or disruption to people, premises, resources and suppliers and includes implications or considerations associated with the identified options.
