My name is Dadi Rúnar Jónsson, and I‘m the Director of Supply Chain Management. I make
sure that the loggers get made and that we have enough in stock. So, I‘m in good contact
with manufacturers that are manufacturing our devices.
When I started two and a half years ago, I didn‘t know what I was getting myself into. We
were, of course, in the middle of Covid, fighting Covid, and I think that has motivated people quite a lot. We were manufacturing around 1,500 to 2,000 loggers a month, but we had to scale up or ramp up to 150,000 a month. And in this time period, we have manufactured over 2 million devices and always delivered on time. And that‘s really something that makes you proud. At least it makes me proud.
For me, it‘s important that you have a voice and a purpose within the company, that you are
being heard, and that you make a difference. And that‘s what Controlant is providing. Your
work matters here. You are trusted, and you are being heard, which is really good.
