ASIS ORM.1-2017 emphasizes a proactive, forward-looking approach to risk that supports the pursuit of business objectives and opportunities, as well as a process for prevention, protection, preparedness, readiness, mitigation, response, continuity, and recovery from undesirable and disruptive events. By fully integrating risk management processes throughout enterprise-wide business management activities, organizations will be empowered to make informed decisions based on best available information.The Standard looks to eliminate "siloing" of risk by using a management systems approach that provides a holistic framework to develop and implement policies, objectives, and programs that consider:Context of the organization and its supply chainLegal, regulatory, and contractual obligations and voluntary commitmentsNeeds of internal and external stakeholdersUncertainties in achieving its objectivesProtection of human, tangible, and intangible assets.The ORM.1 replaces two legacy ASIS standards that had been up for review: the ANSI/ASIS Organizational Resilience: Security, Preparedness and Continuity Management Systems (SPC.1) and ANSI/ASIS/BSI Business Continuity Management Standard (BCM.1).
