The AuditComply Team, who are bringing such impactful and transformational digitisation solutions to customers globally. There has never been a more important time to control everything that is within our control, simplify business processes and in so doing manage risk and deliver operational excellence.
Speaking of his experience in the Food and Beverage Sector, Alan said “Having been involved in the food industry for over 25 years, it has been a tremendous experience to deliver safe, convenient and nutritious food for consumers, while also ensuring sustainable returns for farmers, employees and shareholders. With so many moving parts, trust, data and collaboration were key ingredients to success. Our challenge now is with a growing population, to produce more affordable and nutritious food from less, while also facing the challenges of covid, inflation, Ukraine and climate, all of which are affecting outcomes and increasing risk. Building resilience at every level across the food supply chain will be foundational to future success – transparent and timely data will be a key enabler.”
