Vodafone Qatar on Tuesday received the Business Continuity Institute (BCI)-Qatar Forum's 'Continuity and Resilience Most Effective Recovery' 2018 award.
Vodafone Qatar's Director of External Affairs Mohammed al Yami received the award at the second Business Continuity and Resilience Conference held in Doha.
Vodafone Qatar has been the gold sponsor of the conference for the second consecutive year. This year's edition, titled"Towards a reliable economy", was held under the patronage of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
The event laid focus on supply chain management, cyber security and the government's role in achieving business continuity and resilience for Qatar, building on the outcomes from the conference's first edition.
"The ability to effectively respond to and manage incidents in a timely manner before those become a crisis, is essential to ensure an organisation survives in today's fast paced business environment," Yami said after receiving the award.
"As such, Vodafone Qatar has an established business resilience programme that has been awarded the prestigious ISO 22301:2012 Business Continuity Management System certification, demonstrating the company's commitment to the highest levels of reliability and security in its business and technical operations."
