What Does Minimum Viable Company Mean for a Building Society?

MVC isn't just another resilience acronym. Here's what makes it different.

Operational resilience focuses on protecting important business services and critical customer outcomes. Minimum Viable Company (MVC) goes further - it defines the absolute floor beneath which an organisation ceases to be viable at all.

In this video, Ryan Taylor, Manager at DCR Partners breaks down what that means in practice for building societies - where trust, member stewardship and legitimacy aren't negotiable.

The hard truth? Without an explicit MVC, trade-off decisions still happen - just implicitly, inconsistently and under pressure.

Three things worth knowing about MVC:

  • It sits beneath operational resilience - it's the floor, not the ceiling
  • It's a leadership and governance challenge as much as a technical one
  • It has to be defined before the crisis, not during it
