Level Group's expert in Contractor Management, Adriano Dutra, gave a lecture on November 25 regarding the current landscape of risk management in outsourcing. The presentation took place during the international conference "Buenas prácticas em la gestión logística y cadena de suministro", organized by APPROLOG (Asociación Peruana de Profesionales en Logística) in the city of Lima, Peru, a country where Level Group has recently started operations. Alongside Adriano Dutra, the event featured presentations by Mary Wong, General Manager of GS1 Perú and Director of APPROLOG; Fernando Rodrígez-Lamas, Director of RAPP; and Michael Nickl, Managing Director of Miebach Consulting Chile.
During the presentation, Dutra noted that the hiring of outsourced services has considerably increased among companies in developing economies, driven by the need to streamline processes, a shortage of labor, and cost reduction. This increase has also brought the need for companies to safeguard against potential issues, such as lower-than-expected quality, higher-than-expected costs, legal uncertainty or labor liabilities, increased risks in the production process, labor inspections, service shortages, union opposition, internal staff pushback, and demotivation among in-house personnel. All of this relies on the proper management of these contracts. Dutra, who is also an attorney, emphasized the legal aspects governing the hiring of contractors, explaining processes that help streamline corporate hiring safely and without legal liabilities.
Adriano Dutra's presentation at this major international conference consolidates Level Group's position as a benchmark company in consulting, procurement solutions, contract management, and contractor management for the Brazilian market and throughout Latin America.
