Business Continuity Management
When disruption hits, your response is only as good as your plan. Gieom BCM gives you the tools to assess impact, build tested continuity plans, map dependencies, and demonstrate readiness to your board and your regulators.
Most BCM programmes fail not because of bad intentions, but because the tools don’t match the task. Spreadsheets can’t model dependency cascades. Email chains can’t enforce review cycles. Static documents can’t give regulators what they need.
Gieom BCM replaces all of it with a single, configurable platform: structured BIA scoring, living continuity plans, automated review workflows, and real-time dashboards for leadership
What makes Gieom BCM different
Not just another BCM tool. A configurable platform built for regulated industries, live in organisations across the Middle East and India.
Built for regulated industries
Designed from the ground up for BFSI, with pre-built alignment to DORA, UK OpRes, APRA CPS 230, RBI, and SEBI frameworks. Compliance is built in, not bolted on.
Configurable, not rigid
Every scoring model, template, workflow, and dashboard is configurable to your organisation's structure, without custom development. Adapt as your programme matures.
Continuous, not periodic
Automated review cycles, real-time dashboards, and task tracking make BCM a living programme, not an annual exercise that gets forgotten between audits.
Audit-ready by design
Every action is timestamped. Every approval is attributed. Every review cycle leaves a trail. When regulators ask, your evidence is already organised and ready to present.
Designed for cross-functional use
Business, IT, risk, and compliance teams all work in the same platform. Dependency mapping, BCP ownership, and dashboard access are all role-specific and configurable.
AI-powered and future-ready
Gieom’s Generative AI layer brings intelligent BIA assistance, automated BCP drafting, anomaly detection, and natural language plan querying, ready today, expanding continuously.

Key Features
Built for every stage of the BCM lifecycle
Capabilities that replace manual effort with structured, auditable, and scalable continuity management.
See exactly how your critical processes connect to the people, systems, vendors, and infrastructure that keep them running. Gieom’s flow chart and process map builder visualises dependencies that spreadsheets can’t capture so when disruption hits, you already know the blast radius and the recovery sequence.
- Flow chart and process map builder with drag-and-drop interface
- Link personnel, IT systems, applications, and third-party vendors to processes
- Surface single points of failure before an event reveals them
- Visual dependency data feeds directly into BIA and BCP creation
Assessment & Prioritisation
Replace inconsistent manual questionnaires with a standardised, organisation-wide BIA. Define impact categories and assessment timeframes once then let every business unit score against the same model. Gieom auto-calculates criticality rankings, giving you a defensible, audit-ready output your regulators expect.
- Configurable BIA scoring model: financial, operational, reputational, regulatory impact
- Multi-timeframe assessment: 1hr, 4hr, 24hr, 72hr, 1-week disruption scenarios
- Auto-calculated criticality scores and recovery priority rankings
- BIA outputs feed directly into BCP creation no manual re-entry
Governance & Control
End the version confusion. Every Business Continuity Plan lives in one centralised, governed repository, accessible to the right stakeholders, always showing the current approved version. Attach supporting documents, external links, vendor contacts, and IT simulation tools directly to the plan.
- Centralise all BCPs across departments, business lines, and geographies
- Full version history with change tracking and approval timestamps
- Attach documents, vendor details, sub-processes, and IT simulation tools
- Role-based access control, the right people see the right plans
Visibility & Reporting
Give leadership and risk committees a live view of your BCM programme, not a quarterly slide deck. Configurable dashboards surface BCP status, test results, and action progress in real time. The BCP Test Master tracks every test exercise from planning through to results and improvement actions.
- Configurable dashboards assignable to specific stakeholders and committees
- BCP Test Action Status: track tests by department, category, and quarter
- Status-wise and quarter-wise action reporting for audit readiness
- Real-time data, no manual exports or report preparation required
Automation & Governance
Make BCM a continuous programme, not a once-a-year exercise. Gieom’s workflow engine automatically triggers review cycles, sends notifications, and routes approvals based on defined frequencies. Every BIA review, BCP update, and sign-off is tracked from initiation to completion with a complete audit trail.
- Configurable review frequencies, monthly, quarterly, annual or event-triggered
- Automated approval routing with escalation paths and deadline tracking
- Task management across the full BIA and BCP lifecycle
- Complete audit trail: every action timestamped and attributed

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions we hear most often
Everything you need to know about Gieom’s BCM solution before your first conversation with us.
What is Business Continuity Management and why does my organisation need it?
BCM is the framework that ensures your organisation can continue critical operations and recover quickly when disruptions strike. Whether it’s a cyberattack, a system failure, a vendor outage, or a natural disaster, BCM determines whether your response is controlled or chaotic. Beyond operational necessity, BCM is now a regulatory requirement across major frameworks including DORA, the UK Operational Resilience Framework, APRA CPS 230, RBI, and SEBI meaning the question is no longer whether to have a BCM programme, but how mature and auditable it is.
What is a Business Impact Analysis (BIA) and how does Gieom support it?
A BIA identifies which business processes are critical, assesses the impact of their disruption over different timeframes, and determines Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs). Gieom supports BIA through a configurable scoring model that standardises impact scales across your entire organization, so every business unit assesses disruption against the same criteria. The platform auto-calculates criticality rankings from assessment inputs, giving you a defensible, audit-ready output in place of inconsistent spreadsheets.
How does Gieom BCM differ from managing continuity in spreadsheets?
Spreadsheets can’t enforce review cycles, provide real-time dashboards, maintain an audit trail, or model dependencies. Gieom replaces them with a single platform that covers the entire BCM lifecycle: standardised BIA scoring, centralised BCP repository, automated review and approval workflows, structured testing, and live dashboards. The result is a programme that satisfies regulators, gives leadership visibility, and doesn’t require manual effort to keep current.
Does Gieom BCM support dependency mapping for IT systems and third-party vendors?
Yes. Gieom’s dependency mapping capability allows you to link IT systems, applications, key personnel, third-party vendors, and infrastructure to specific critical processes, visualised as flow charts and process maps. This gives you a clear picture of what each critical process depends on, surface single points of failure, and inform recovery sequencing. Dependency data is directly connected to your BIA and BCP, not stored separately.
How does BCP testing work in Gieom?
Gieom includes a BCP Testing Template and a Test Master module. You create structured test plans, tabletop exercises, simulation drills, or full-scale tests, and record results against each plan. The Test Master tracks all BCP tests with status, department, category, and quarter-wise breakdowns. Test findings link directly to improvement actions, closing the loop between testing and plan updates. All test records are timestamped and available for audit.
Which regulatory frameworks does Gieom BCM support?
Gieom BCM is built with regulated industries in mind and supports alignment to: DORA (EU), UK Operational Resilience Framework (FCA/PRA), APRA CPS 230 (Australia), RBI Operational Resilience Framework (India), SEBI CSCRF (India), CBUAE guidelines (UAE/GCC), and the ISO 22301 BCM standard. If you operate across multiple jurisdictions, Gieom’s configurable platform allows you to manage obligations under different frameworks within the same instance.
How configurable is the platform can we tailor it to our organisation's structure?
Highly configurable without custom development. The BIA scoring model, impact categories, assessment timeframes, BCP and BIA templates, review frequencies, approval workflows, and dashboards are all configurable by your administrators. This means the platform adapts to your organisational structure, regulatory context, and BCM maturity level rather than forcing you to adapt to rigid software logic. Configuration changes are reflected immediately across the platform.
How does Gieom ensure our BCM programme stays current between audits?
Gieom’s automated review workflow triggers review cycles based on configured frequencies monthly, quarterly, annual, or event-driven. When a review is due, the platform automatically notifies the relevant owners, routes the plan for approval, and tracks the process to completion. Real-time dashboards give risk committees and senior leadership continuous visibility into plan currency, what’s under review, and any gaps so nothing is discovered only when an audit happens.
Can Gieom BCM be used by organisations outside of BFSI?
Yes. While Gieom’s roots are in financial services and we have deep regulatory expertise in BFSI, the BCM platform is sector-agnostic. Any organisation with critical processes that need protecting in healthcare, telecoms, infrastructure, logistics, or the public sector can use Gieom BCM. The configurable templates and scoring models adapt to different industry contexts without requiring industry-specific versions of the product.
What does implementation look like and how long does it take?
Implementation timelines vary based on organisational complexity and the scope of BCM maturity you’re starting from. Gieom’s team works with you through configuration, template setup, and user onboarding. Organisations that are going live typically begin with BIA configuration and one or two critical process categories, then expand.
