BS was BSI's standard in the field of Business Continuity Management (BCM). It was withdrawn in 2012 (part 2) and 2013 (part 1) following the publication of the international standards ISO 22301 - ″Societal Security — Business continuity management systems — Requirements″ and ISO 22313 - ″Societal Security — Business continuity management systems — Guidance″
Upon its publication in 2007 BS 99 replaced PAS 56, a Publicly Available Specification, published in 2003 on the same subject.
BS 99 was a Business Continuity Management (BCM) standard published by the British Standards Institution (BSI).
It had two parts;
The first part of BS 99 (BS 99-1:2006) was published by the British Standards Institution in December 2006. The second part of BS 99 (BS 99-2:2007) was published in November 2007.
BS 99-2 was withdrawn in November 2012 having been replaced by the International Standard, ISO 22301. BS 99-1 was withdrawn in early 2013 having been replaced by ISO 22313.
Both parts of the standard contributed significantly to the international standards that succeeded then and to the development of other national and international standards (such as ASIS/BSI BCM.01:2010).
