PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

From the situation to investigation deliverables.

See which facts need clarification, the relevant services and the deliverable associated with each one.

SITUATION 01

The origin of agricultural inputs is in question

A batch of fertiliser, crop protection products or seeds arrives with packaging, identification or origin different from the contract. Adulteration, counterfeiting or irregular provenance is suspected. The company needs to document the batch, investigate the supplier, broker and approver, and identify any technical checks required.
