Abstract: The research aims to assess the level of readiness of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure for business continuity at Earthlink Telecommunications and Internet Services Company in Iraq, in light of the requirements of the international standard ISO/IEC 27031:2025. The research adopts a case study approach as an appropriate methodological framework for understanding and analyzing the organizational and technical complexity inherent in telecommunications sector organizations. To achieve the research objectives, a set of integrated data collection tools was employed, including field interviews with technical and administrative staff, a review of organizational documents and approved policies, as well as direct field observation of the ICT infrastructure environment. In addition, a checklist was developed based on the requirements of ISO/IEC 27031:2025 to assess the level of compliance and implementation. A seven-point Likert scale was also utilized to determine the actual level of application for each requirement of the standard. Furthermore, selected quality management tools, such as the Pareto chart and Ishikawa (fishbone) diagram, were applied to analyze gaps and diagnose the root causes affecting the level of readiness. The analysis results revealed that the overall compliance rate with the standard’s requirements reached 53.46%, compared to an overall gap of 46.54%, indicating a moderate level of ICT infrastructure readiness in supporting business continuity. At the level of the main clauses, Clause (8), related to core requirements and infrastructure, recorded the highest compliance rate at 64.6%, reflecting an acceptable level of technical preparedness of the infrastructure supporting service continuity. In contrast, Clause (12), concerning the Minimum Business Continuity Objective (MBCO), ranked lowest with a compliance rate of 45.8%, indicating deficiencies in defining final operational business continuity objectives and aligning them with the technical capabilities of the infrastructure. Moreover, Pareto analysis showed that only eight sub-requirements account for approximately 80% of the total gap, with the most significant weaknesses concentrated in testing and exercise programs, as well as Business Impact Analysis (BIA) requirements. In light of these findings, the study recommends adopting a formal institutional program aligned with ISO/IEC 27031:2025, developing a progressive methodology for periodic testing and exercise programs with documented improvement actions based on their outcomes, and investing in the enhancement of the existing infrastructure by strengthening redundancy capabilities and digital resilience, while directly integrating them with business continuity and disaster recovery plans.
