Is MHA BCaaS a Good Investment?
BCaaS yields a significant return on investment by building a sound program foundation from the start, eliminating the errors, missteps, and confusion often encountered in developing a BCM program.
The financial investment for BCaaS varies based on organizational size and need, but the investment per year is typically less than the fully loaded cost to employ a full-time senior-level BCM professional.
Included in the cost of the annual BCaaS is access to one or more of MHA’s BCM experts, each with 15 years or more of BCM experience, as required to meet your needs.
