1 Template v4 WILTSHIRE POLICE FORCE POLICY BUSINESS CONTINUITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (BCMS) Effective from: July 2013 Last Review Date: January 2017 Version: 3.0 Next Review Date: January 2019

2 POLICY STATEMENT Wiltshire Police has a statutory duty to maintain plans to ensure that they can continue to perform their functions in the event of an Emergency, so far as is reasonably practicable. The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 (CCA) requires emergency responders to exercise all their functions, not just their emergency functions, in the event of an emergency. Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS) must be put in place to ensure that these functions are carried out so far as is reasonably practicable. BCMS is a management process that helps manage the risks to the smooth running of an organisation or delivery of a service, ensuring it can continue to operate to the extent required in the event of disruption. These risks could be from the external environment (e.g. power outages, severe weather) or from within an organisation (e.g. systems failure, loss of key staff). BCMS is complementary to Risk Management which seeks to understand the wider risks (of which BCMS may be one) to the achievement of the aims and objectives of the force. It is important not to confuse Business Continuity Management with operational response to major incidents. Business continuity management focuses on internal issues to maintain organisational abilities whereas response to major incidents focuses on external events. Wiltshire Police provides the public of Wiltshire with a full policing service 365 days of the year. The purpose of our Business Continuity Management System is to ensure that in the event of any disruption of service, critical core police functions continue to be performed to an acceptable level of service and recovery from disruption is both timely and effective. The BCMS will be complimented by plans which contain force wide, divisional and departmental contingencies and details of how the force will deal with such threats if and when they do arise. Though disruptions in service delivery are anticipated the Force would not be regarded as efficient or effective if in the face of disruptive challenges, it was unable to continue delivery of service to an acceptable level. What is acceptable will depend to some extent on the circumstances and acceptance indicated by public opinion, public or judicial enquiries or inspectorate bodies such as HMIC. Adherence to this policy will ensure compliance with all relevant legislation and internal policies and ensure that the Force has effective BCMS in place which are regularly tested and maintained. Failure to adhere to this policy would be likely to attract criticism from those judging force performance and may expose the force to risks such as loss of reputation, financial penalties or punitive action against individuals. POLICY AIM The aim of this policy is to direct the Force towards a comprehensive framework for a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) so that in the event of an emergency, Wiltshire Police can continue to provide the best possible service. The policy includes all slow time management activities and is complemented by plans which can be used in the event of a disruption, or threatened disruption, to the service provision of the force. The policy fully supports the Wiltshire Police objective To prevent crime and protect the public. Version: Next Review Date: January 2019 Page 2 of 8
