Of the UK business leaders we surveyed, 98.8% told us they’re confident their suppliers are compliant and operationally ready to begin work. Yet 66.4% say workforce related disruptions caused operational delays or shutdowns in the past 12 months.
Compliance creates an essential foundation, but in a volatile environment shaped by geopolitical instability, shifting labour regulations, and expanding ESG mandates, point-in-time records need real-time context. That’s the work readiness gap: the distance between confidence in readiness and having enough current visibility to prove it as conditions change.
Our latest whitepaper, Closing the work readiness gap: Why compliance alone is not enough, explores how a connected approach to work readiness can reduce mobilisation friction and help teams see, verify, and act quickly as conditions change.
