What is ISO 28002?

ISO 28002:2022 specifies guidelines for implementing a Resilience Management System (RMS). It helps organizations identify vulnerabilities across their supply chain and operations, implement proactive measures, and ensure the continuity of critical functions.

This standard is crucial for businesses operating in volatile, high-risk, or globally interlinked environments — such as manufacturing, logistics, energy, and critical infrastructure sectors.

Why is ISO 28002 important?

  1. In today's unpredictable world, disruptions like pandemics, cyber-attacks, or geopolitical issues can cripple operations.
  2. Clients, governments, and partners increasingly expect proof of resilience preparedness.
  3. ISO 28002 helps you proactively prepare for, respond to, and recover from disruptions with minimal loss.
  4. Enables alignment with other resilience frameworks and international risk management standards.

What are the benefits of ISO 28002?

  1. Provides a structured approach for identifying risks to operational continuity
  2. Establishes an early warning system and response protocols
  3. Facilitates post-incident recovery, reducing downtime and losses
  4. Strengthens resilience of supply chains, logistics, and infrastructure
  5. Ensures stakeholder confidence during crises
  6. Supports sustainable development and long-term viability
  7. Integrates with ISO 9001, ISO 27001, and ISO 22301 for a holistic management system
