With 25 years in Technology, Information Assurance and Cyber Security, including roles as Chief Information Security Officer at the Houses of Parliament Restoration Programme, Rolls-Royce and the Ministry of Defence, I’ve seen supply chain security from every angle.

This experience reveals organisations are sleepwalking into supply chain risks by relying on outdated approaches and software-only solutions. Traditional methods – questionnaires, audits, and baseline contracts – no longer address today’s threats. While the market pushes toward software solutions, these tools often create a false sense of security and lack the human insight needed for complex supply chains.

Supply Chain Security accountability often sits with the Security Executive rather than business leaders who own the assets, while organisations struggle to identify critical suppliers and allocate resources effectively. Most importantly, businesses fail to leverage their security investments as commercial advantage – which is baffling!

This is why I found Supply Assure – to transform supply chain security from a cost centre into a competitive edge. Our approach combines deep expertise with practical experience and our unique framework, something no software can deliver alone.

Success demands more than vision, so I have built a team of exceptional professionals and strategic advisors who share our mission to revolutionise supply chain security assurance. Together, we bring diverse expertise across sectors and security disciplines to help secure your supply chain and transform it into your competitive advantage.
