Business Continuity Management System
To ensure business resiliency, SMIC has set in place a management system for business continuation in the face of crisis. SMIC makes preparations against potential disruptions based on analysis of internal and external risks in order to minimize the likelihood of their occurrence and/or their impact. When an incident occurs, the company will follow pre-planned responses and will also maintain open communication with all stakeholders. These recovery plans are documented, reviewed (using a multidisciplinary team), updated as needed, and periodically tested. Together these actions ensure production is minimally affected and fully restored as soon as possible.
