The paper examines business continuity practices (BCP), contingency planning and risk management in relation to real-world business scenarios, from the experience of an engineering and management consultancy and the high-risk area of protecting one of its most valuable assets – information, to the vulnerabilities and failure associated with the 2008 opening of Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 5. The research uses detailed sources, from BBC online news reports ‘What went wrong at Heathrow’s T5?’ to works on risk management and risk analysis by analysts Baccarini and Broder, Cerullo and Taylor. The paper also discusses the importance of business continuity planning in supply chain management, and the consequences for organisations which do not have a coherent or responsive contingency plan.
