  • to promote a common set of universal terms
  • to reduce confusion and remove inconsistencies between parties
  • to facilitate coordination
  • to provide a standard translation of technical terms specific to the profession.

    Please include the DRJ Glossary of Business Continuity Terms. In April 2017, the DRJ Glossary of Business Continuity Terms merged with the BCI Dictionary. Later in Sept 2018, the document incorporated the former CPM Glossary.
