Business Continuity
Who We Are
Salisbury based Veterus Consulting Limited is the resilience partner of choice for public and private sector organizations across the UK.
What We Do
We build resilience to loss and disruption across all functions and throughout the supply chain by identifying all significant risk then mitigating them through the development of business continuity policies, strategies, plans, exercises, tests and audits into a cohesive business continuity management system.
Who We Do It For
Our work provides assurance to staff, customers and shareholders that corporate governance is sound and that the business will anticipate and survive disruptions; minimising loss and ensuring uninterrupted delivery of critical products and services.
“A Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) is a self-governing process that works like a corporate immune system – proactively building resilience to creeping crisis and sudden shock disruptions that can lose customers and vital data, ruin your reputation, strangle cashflow and put your company out of business.” – Bradley Wright – MD Veterus Consulting Limited
Our Experience
Our consultants have deep personal experience of hundreds of live incidents that range from disease epidemics and explosive incidents to major fires and floods, as well as media management, severe weather events and mission-critical equipment failures.
We also have specialist knowledge and experience of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive Hazard management, Security consultancy, hostile vehicle mitigation and counter-eavesdropping.
Our Approach
Although every engagement is bespoke, Veterus consultants will quickly focus on protecting what’s most important; leveraging our trademark, 5-step MEDIC process to quickly identify and protect mission critical products, services and people – allowing us to identify pragmatic, cost effective solutions quickly and restore your peace of mind. SMEs can identify risk mitigation strategies and test plans within a week!
Unlike insurers, Business Continuity Consultants proactively defend your business and customers from disaster and disruption – safeguarding:
- your people
- customer loyalty
- brand and
- reputation.

“We signed up to the one-day BCMlite workshop and left with a clear understanding of our top 10 risks, appropriate mitigating strategies and a step-by-step plan to put our business continuity plans in place within 30 days. We’re now looking forward to exercising our plans next month and feel much more confident in our ability to manage possible disruptions to the business.”

BS25999-2 Audits, Exercises, Tests and Reviews
Business Continuity Plan Audits, Exercises, Tests and Reviews are a particular strength and we have considerable experience in writing business continuity scenarios and exercises ranging from simple fires, floods and industrial action to pandemic flu, severe weather events, denial of key buildings or sites, explosive incidents, failure of critical national infrastructure and area wide radioactive contamination.
“I can’t speak highly enough about Veterus Consulting. We needed professional advice after a disappointing audit and were under considerable pressure to deliver sharp improvements in our business continuity planning before the auditors returned. Veterus audited our existing plans for 32 front-line services in 6 weeks; identifying where we were falling short of our statutory Civil Protection duties and the new British Standard (BS25999-2) then provided us with a step-wise improvement programme to get us back on track.”

“It can be uncomfortable at times to learn how vulnerable your organization is to the simplest of disruptions – like a fire. We hadn’t noticed the lack of smoke detectors in our leased buildings or the one-off paper records unprotected in safes.”
