Why Conduct a Pilot?

This session will dive into the strategic advantages of running pilot projects to refine approaches, mitigate risks, and achieve successful outcomes in projects and programmes. Yusuf will share some of the challenges he has encountered when adopting this approach and offer real-world examples from pilots he has been involved in. Attendees will gain practical insights into how changing methodologies can foster innovation and improve project delivery, with valuable lessons that can be applied within your own organisation. These pilot projects have provided the Food Standards Agency with insights into scalable innovations that enhance food safety and regulatory efficiency.
