Area business continuity management (Area-BCM) is a framework for coordinating multiple stakeholders with differing interests to achieve the continuity of socio-economic activities during the crisis. The framework enhances the public-private partnership (PPP) as well as the resilience of the business. Area-BCM framework does not facilitate an individually optimized response to a common crisis such as a natural disaster for business continuity by private companies, industrial complexes, infrastructure operators, local government agencies, and other stakeholders within the affected area, but a total optimization through an understanding of interdependencies and multidimensional collaboration.
Accordingly, the Area-BCM consists of five steps in its cycle:
