Valcon's answer? A cutting-edge system built with .NET Core and Angular, enabling precise control over warehouse conditions through smart sensors and a user-friendly touchscreen interface. This solution, developed in phases from discovery to MVP, not only boosts efficiency but also reduces energy usage by 30%.

Our Valcon colleague, Priyanka, is based in Dartford, Kent, where she works as a Senior Specialist in QA. With a wealth of experience across diverse domains such as medical, broadband, and retail, Priyanka has established herself as an expert in quality assurance. Her career has been marked by her ability to automate a wide range of scenarios, from simple web-based applications to complex geolocation-based mobile apps. She has also been instrumental in creating automation frameworks from scratch, including integrating them into CI/CD pipelines to streamline the release process. Last year, Priyanka seized the opportunity to join Valcon, a move she describes as a highlight in her career. She was fortunate to be placed on a large project account for a retailer client where she found herself under the expert guidance of her colleague Steve Baughan. Priyanka quickly became an integrated part of the team, which she praises for its warm and welcoming environment that made her feel at home from day one. Outside of work, Priyanka enjoys spending quality time with her children, going on long peaceful walks, playing badminton and doing yoga. Recently, she had the exhilarating experience of hiking up Mount Snowdon, where the breathtaking views from the summit made every step of the journey worthwhile. Looking ahead, Priyanka is eager to delve deeper into AI-based automation testing. She is passionate about exploring how AI can help identify bugs at the inception stage, reducing the effort required and improving the overall quality of software.

Now that the first CSRD-compliant sustainability statements are nearly complete, the real work begins. Methods to assess materiality need to be evaluated, and we must ask if we're truly achieving the necessary results across the financial industry. There's also a growing need for increased effort in setting biodiversity and circularity-related targets and identifying relevant actions. Valcon's sustainable finance expert, Jeffrey Colin, spoke to @banken.nl about assessing materiality, formulating impactful targets, obtaining the required data and much more.

Last week, Valcon had the privilege of co-facilitating 'ESG Barometer 24 Live', a day filled with insightful discussions, speeches and reflections on building sustainable resilience. Several important dilemmas were highlighted, and one thing is certain – there is still much for companies to learn about effective ESG reporting. One of the best ways to learn is by seeing how others approach it. The ESG Barometer brings together reports from the OMX Copenhagen 25 index companies, offering a comprehensive look at how ESG legislation translates into practice and how it is being integrated into the business. We're proud to have been part of this essential work! You can access the ESG Barometer 2024 here: https://lnkd.in/dxfMk4SM A big thank you as well to all the speakers, to Make® - Creative consultancy and Danish Industry and to Dorthe Grønvold Tjørnemark for making the event a success.

A lot of organisations ask ‘How is AI going to benefit me?’ A good place to start is an ‘AI pressure cooker,’ a pilot programme that tests how a Large Language Model (LLM) will impact processes and benefit users. ProRail, the Dutch railway management company, and Valcon worked together on RICO, a chatbot prototype to help retrieve data from the Rail Infra Catalogue (RIC) - a massive database of railway infrastructure data.
