Honestly, your squad has all the buffs needed to make a solid squad. Just make sure to alternate between Melord's BB and SBB and keep Alan's SBB up often so that you'd be able to have good BC fill.

I will note though - you don't really have reliable HC fill; since Alan's the only one with an HC-related buff. In late-game content, you'll encounter enemies with heavy Damage over Time (DoT), which can only be combated with HoT - a useful buff which is nowhere to be found on your squad. This can be remedied by slotting in Cleria, Linasera, or Gabriela into your squad. I'd say swap out Lauda for one of them - anyway, Lauda's somewhat outclassed at this point; and he shares Regil's BBAtk boost anyway.

Additionally, you don't have a unit which can deal with ailments. Honestly, simple ailment cleanse will be enough. Thankfully, it's found in Melord's SP options, so unlock it if you can.

Finally, there isn't really any reliable OD management buffs on your squad aside from Melord's OD fillrate boost, which is kinda useless on its own. This can be remedied by bringing in, say, a Shion Friend.

I hope this helped! (^^)/
