Becoming much more common for companies to examine supply network data to understand where safety and sustainability problems are most likely to occur, so that finite resources are directed towards managing risk in the most effective way to protect both products and the planet. In the UK, for example, LRQA is leading a consortium project – SecQuAL – which brings together manufacturers, supply chain innovators and data specialists to develop integrated technologies, which digitise the provenance and transparency of food supply chains. Where data and technology have enormous potential to turbo-charge transparency and supply chain efforts, the growth of the ESG agenda is also emphasising the value of more traditional forms of certification.
Successful organisations are embedding net-zero targets into WhatsApp Number Database existing and proven standards and management systems, for example through the environmental management system ISO 14001[1] or energy management system ISO 50001[2] certification. Companies are finding that standards covering everything from carbon reduction, to social and ethical practices, can provide both a robust framework for continual improvement and lifecycle thinking, as well as a foundation for credible reporting, helping to identify risks and opportunities from product concept and design to end of life – and enabling sustainability considerations to be integrated into decision-making at every step. We expect to see even more focus on the role of assurance in the coming year, as businesses recalibrate after the pandemic and look again at sustainability, social responsibility and security across operations and supply chains. The re-branding of our business to LRQA this month signals a broader ambition to meet that need, so that the digital transformation of assurance continues to strengthen the foundations of sustainable business growth.
