Şimdi yola geri dönüyorlar, ancak konumun ziyaretçi aldığından emin olmak için önceden arıyorlar." Holly, Westway'de satış ekibinin müşterilerin envanter seviyelerini bildirmek için teslimat şoförleriyle birlikte çalış- tığını, çünkü çoğunun seyahat yasağı direktifiyle kısıtlan- dığını söyledi. Diğer taraftan, fiziki evrak işleri için bırakma noktalarının kullanımı veya nakliye belgeleri için elektronik değişim ve nakliyeciler için temassız seçenekler bu süre zarfında Alltech tarafından benimsenen bir şey. İkinci Dalga için Hazırlık Çalışanlar, müşteriler, tedarikçiler ve daha geniş anlam- da tarım endüstrisi arasında tutarlı ve istikrarlı iletişim ve işbirliği ihtiyacı, kriz boyunca istikrarlı kaldı. COVID-19, bu rakipler için ne kadar zor olursa olsun, öğrenilen derslerin paylaşılmasının hayatları ve virüsün gelecekteki yörünge- in retail (e.g., reduced dried distillers grains from idled ethanol plants). “Early in the crisis, our primary supply chain concern was the potential impact to trucking transportation,” said Lee. “Our response, and that of our customers, was to increase inventory levels to ensure consistent product availability.” In cases where this was not possible, some companies worked with their procurement teams to quickly source alternatives and with their nutritionists to change feed for- mulations. When some U.S. meatpacking facilities shut- tered due to a rise in COVID-19 cases, the AFIA coordi- nated with others within the agricultural community on an effort to salvage some of the animal-based products as safe and nutritious ingredients for use in feed and pet food, in accordance with stringent federal animal food safety regulations. Throughout the crisis, the bar was never lowered on feed or pet food nu- trition, safety or quality. While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration changed the schedule for inspections, some in- spections and audits took place virtu- ally. Unfortunately, bringing in new sales is an area that was put on the backburner throughout the crisis. “Our sales staff were off the road for six weeks,” said Lon Stephens, general manager of Co-operative Feed Dealers, Inc.’s Conklin, New York, USA, facility. “They are heading back onto the road now, but are calling ahead to be sure the location is receiving visitors.” At Westway, the sales team worked with the delivery drivers to communicate customers’ inventory levels, since many were restricted with a no travel directive, Holly said. On the flip side, the use of drop-points for physical paperwork or the electronic exchange for shipping documents, and contactless options for shippers, is something Alltech em- braced during this time. Preparing for the Second Wave The need for consistent and steady Operating facilities in the era of COVID-19, Alltech’s emp- loyee models new safety practices.
