IT plays a key role at LDC \u2013 both\nin our daily business and in supporting the pursuit of our transformation and\npurpose as a company. How? By developing or enhancing agile solutions, operational\nproductivity and reliability, business insights, and a more efficient and\ntraceable business that creates fair and sustainable value \u2013 for ourselves and\nfor our stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leveraging data to improve business decisions\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data now outranks oil as the\nworld\u2019s most valuable resource – and no wonder! Data is key to understanding\nour business performance and how to improve it. Our IT teams work closely with commercial\nand functional teams to monitor output, efficiency and results, helping to\nimprove decision-making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 and to enhance trading performance <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data\nanalysis is crucial to effective decision-making in trading. To anticipate and respond to a dynamic agricultural\nmarket, giving traders timely access to reliable market insights as the basis\nfor informed decisions is a priority. We are exploring a number of avenues to\nenhance our analytical capabilities, both for historical and current data, for\ninstance leveraging an online balance sheet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connecting with global partners…<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also use technology to build and reinforce relationships with farmers, allowing them to monitor shipment tickets and payments from any device, through our easy-to-use MyLDC<\/em><\/a> web portal. As we gather data from regular use, we hope to enhance our service to farmers by providing relevant information customized to their business, such as market updates and climate forecasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026and standardizing processes <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a global organization, our teams\nwork across multiple locations and areas of expertise. Robust technology helps\nus to standardize systems for smooth, consistent processes everywhere. An\naccountant in Bulgaria will work with the same tools as his peers in Uruguay. Execution teams\nin Geneva will work on the same platform as their colleagues in Singapore. And\nso on, ensuring efficiency and consistency across our regions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exploring and investing in new technologies\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We empower our teams to research\nand experiment with cutting-edge technologies that could improve the way we\nwork \u2013 for instance Cloud, Artificial Intelligence, API and SAP S\/4 Hana\ntechnologies, with potential to lead to automation, or to give teams across LDC\nnew capacity to create and innovate in their respective areas of expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 and contributing to more agile and traceable business<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much of the technological\ninnovation at LDC takes place in our offices – but not all of it! We are leveraging\ntechnology to adapt\nfaster to new business trends and stakeholder expectations, and innovating in\nour operations to serve farmers and customers better \u2013 for instance, using blockchain to make the\nsupply chain of orange juice from Brazil to consumers in the Netherlands fully\ntransparent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technology is woven into everything we do at LDC, from origination through to processing, trading and marketing. Our capacity to leverage new technologies has made our business increasingly efficient, collaborative and sustainable over almost 170 years, and it is still doing so today. But do not just take our word for it! Hear from our IT teams about the exciting initiatives they are working on and how they are helping to transform our organization<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
