Abstract

In a modern networked society, most business operations are diversified and interdependent cross-regionally. This is a very efficient system in a normal situation but will cause many chain-failures through its interdependencies once large disasters hit any SPOF (Single Point Of Failure) in the networked structure. In order to assure an organization’s business continuity at the time of disasters, BCM should expand its scope by including stakeholders and regional BCMs based on PPP (Public-Private Partnership). This will play a key role to enhance a local community’s resilience. Based on the case studies on the three recent large earthquakes in Japan, the limitations of existing PPP are assessed and the importance of the intermediaries to provide economic incentives are recognized. Several BCM-related financial schemes are discussed as one form of effective economic incentives.
