Quality, Compliance and Social Value: The Missing Link with Chelsea Tooze
What do quality management systems, social value, procurement and modern slavery have in common? In this episode of Let's Talk Social Value, Sarah Stone is joined by Chelsea Tooze, Global Director of Quality and Regulatory at 2San, to explore the surprising connection between quality compliance and social value delivery. Together they unpack how quality management, regulatory compliance, supplier assurance and ethical sourcing are becoming increasingly intertwined with social value requirements across both public and private sector procurement.
Drawing on experience across pharmaceutical, medical device and diagnostics organisations, Chelsea explains why many businesses are already collecting the information needed to answer social value questions - but often don't know where to find it. She argues that quality and regulatory teams are an untapped resource for bid teams, sustainability professionals and procurement specialists trying to respond to growing customer expectations around environmental sustainability, modern slavery, supply chain integrity and social compliance.
“Meeting the minimum isn't enough anymore. We've also got to look at what layers do we need to build on top of that to make sure we're achieving overall compliance." - Chelsea Tooze
