Business strategy
Business strategy In 2018, we made a Strategic Business Plan 2019 – 2023. This is our guidance for the remaining years. For the second straight year, the COVID-19 pandemic had an effect on our business strategy, although this time around we were better prepared and its impact was less disruptive than in 2020. Working from home, remote auditing, and hybrid meetings became part of our standard way of working.
