Synopsis

This book organizes that complexity into twenty chapters in five parts:

• Part I, Core Operations and Science: R&D, Packaging Development, Production, QA/QC, and Engineering and Maintenance
• Part II, Supply Chain and Logistics: Procurement, Supply Chain Management, and Warehousing and Logistics
• Part III, Compliance and Safety: Regulatory Affairs, Food Integrity and Crisis Management, Health, Safety and Environment, and Sanitation
• Part IV, Business and Corporate Support: Sales and Marketing, Customer Care, Finance, Human Resources, and IT and Digital
• Part V, Leadership, Governance and Transformation: Sustainability, Operational Excellence, and Top Management and Stakeholders

Every department chapter follows the same structure, so you can go straight to what you need or work through a department from start to finish.
