Managing Risk During a Product Crisis – Click to Register!
As a leader in the consumer products industry, you know that when a product crisis happens, it’s all hands on deck. Whether it’s: what to do with the product in crisis (e.g. recalling from the marketplace, handling existing inventory, etc.), minimizing additional risk to consumers, public relations and regulatory agency communications, managing brand and company reputations and liabilities and how to get back into producing & selling the product. It’s critical to have clear, effective processes in place so each function knows exactly what to do and when to do it. But how do you even begin to decide what gets done first?

Enterprise Risk Management/COSO, Supply Chain Management/Supply Chain Priority Setting with Dr. John Spink – Click to Register!
As the food fraud prevention strategies become more formalized they become an active management system. As management systems are formalized they force more basic questions as “how much is enough” and also how the assessment calibrates with other assessments. Is a food fraud “medium” risk rank on the same scale as a food safety “medium” rank? Is a food fraud “medium” risk rank on the same scale as a marketplace disruption “Medium” rank? For one system to be able to calibrate those risk ranks to support logical decision-making there needs to be a central integrated framework. While it may seem like a new concept for food scientists, the COSO based Enterprise Risk Management answers these questions. Since the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 this type of internal controls and integrated framework has been a regulatory requirement. This presentation will synthesize the interdisciplinary enterprise risk management foundation for assessing and managing supply chain disruptions such as were created by COVID.

“Knowing that ISO 9001:2015 isn’t supposed to have a final release until fall of this year, I expected the “Preparing for a Successful Transition” webinar to be filled with expectational fluff. I was pleasantly surprised to actually learn a number of different things that will be of some use to me while maintaining my company’s QMS.
The presentation was well laid out and the presenter reflected a sound knowledge of the topic. I have viewed several PJR webinars and I haven’t been disappointed yet. Even considering they are “free”, I have felt cheated by paying for other webinars that fell way short of expectations. Keep up the good work!”
