Abstract
Purpose
This research examines the influences of organizational contexts (i.e. firm size, international level, tier level, export level, product brand and IATF 16949 - an international quality management certification in the automotive industry) on business continuity management (BCM) (i.e. leadership, strategy, planning, application and maintenance).
Design/methodology/approach
Data were collected from 216 automotive parts manufacturers in Thailand. Regression analysis was used to test hypotheses.
Findings
The study found that firm size, international level, tier level, export level and product brand had significant positive impacts on overall BCM and every component, except for the insignificant effect of tier level on strategy. IATF 16949 had insignificant impacts on overall BCM and all components, except for maintenance.
Originality/value
This is one of the first research studies to investigate the influences of organizational characteristics on business continuity management.
