Resilience You Can Prove
Since 31 March 2025, UK regulators no longer ask whether you have mapped your important business services — they ask whether you can prove the map is current.
For: CIO, CTO, Head of Technology Risk or Enterprise Architecture lead in a UK bank, insurer, asset manager, building society, or critical-infrastructure operator
The Regulatory Facts
The Challenge
The Question Has Shifted From Whether the Map Exists to Whether It Is Current
The FCA and PRA operational resilience regime reached full enforcement on 31 March 2025. By that date, in-scope firms had to have performed mapping and testing sufficient to remain within impact tolerances for each important business service — and the obligation did not end there: mapping and tolerances must be reviewed at least annually, or whenever the business materially changes. One year on, the FCA has reviewed firms' annual self-assessments and set out where practice is strong and where it falls short, engaging directly with firms on its findings.
For many firms, the map lives in spreadsheets assembled for the deadline — a point-in-time artefact describing a business that has since changed. Every application, dependency, third party and team behind an important business service must be identifiable today, not as of last March. Firms that treat resilience mapping as an annual documentation exercise are accumulating a quiet liability: the gap between what the self-assessment asserts and what the estate actually looks like.

The Bee360 Solution
A Map Rebuilt Once a Year Is a Photograph. The Regulator Is Asking for a Live Picture.
Bee360 maintains the connection between important business services and everything behind them — applications, dependencies, suppliers, owners, change activity — as a continuously current model rather than a periodic exercise. When an application is replaced or a third party changes, the map changes with it, and the annual self-assessment becomes an export of living data rather than a reconstruction project. Bee360's Fast-Track approach builds the initial service-to-application picture in weeks, deliberately starting from what the regulation requires rather than from exhaustive architectural modelling.
Analyst recognition: Bee360 is a SPARK Matrix Leader for Enterprise Architecture Management (Quadrant Knowledge Solutions, 2021–2024) and appears in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Architecture Tools (2025) — the discipline underpinning service-to-application mapping.
