Business continuity monitoring that stands up to audit
A continuity plan names the conditions that activate it. Very few organisations check those conditions daily. When a crisis builds slowly, there is then no moment anyone can point to and say the plan was formally activated.
CHARIS monitors the activation triggers in your plan every day, against cited evidence, and tells you in plain terms whether each one is breached.
The problem: plans without a monitoring loop
A plan that relies on someone noticing the trigger conditions is a plan that activates late. Scanning advisories, airspace notices and border updates by inbox does not scale past one or two countries, and it leaves no evidence trail showing when a condition was first met.
The same problem appears in reverse when the disruption ends. There is rarely a documented basis for deciding conditions have recovered enough to resume operations.
How CHARIS answers it
You select the countries you operate in and the triggers that match your plan, drawn from a catalogue of crisis-onset (LEAVE) and re-entry (ENTER) categories. Each trigger has a defined activation threshold and is assessed on a strict binary basis: BREACHED or NOT BREACHED, with citations, no partial statuses.
Assessments run automatically every day. Per-country results roll up into a LEAVE risk classification (STABLE, ELEVATED, HIGH, EXTREME) and an ENTER readiness classification (NOT READY, WATCH, READY, GO), each mapped to a plain-language recommendation.
Every assessment records which triggers were evaluated, what evidence was considered and why each trigger did or did not breach. That is an evidence trail you can put in front of your board, your insurer or your auditor.
Honest limits
CHARIS is an input to your continuity process, not a replacement for it. Assessments are indicative and should be verified against live operational conditions before you act. The registry behind CHARIS covers 196 countries, and source depth varies by country. Each country you select carries a coverage grade so you can see what its posture rests on, and a country we cannot cover well says so rather than showing you a confident empty screen.
