Dear [r-FName]:
Government
statistics have historically reported that the extent of stolen
merchandise during shipment could average $1.5 billion to $2.6
billion a year nationally. In addition, it has been rumored that as
much as 85% of stolen merchandise may leave by the front gate,
meaning the ease in simply walking away with it.
Most of these losses
appear under the category of "inventory shortages", but
experts agree the greatest trouble spot exist at the dock in the form
of "overloading" and "shorting" receipts. Due to
these losses, industrial security has become a vital element in
surveillance operations, and plant and warehouse layout activity.
While structural
changes for existing buildings are generally impractical, there are
simple modifications that can often be implemented to supplement the
physical and electronic surveillance systems. When laying out new
plants and warehouses, security considerations can be integrated into
an overall plan, without interrupting shipment processes. A simple
suggestion of not permitting employee parking near cargo-handling
operations can result in a substantial annual savings to a warehouse
facility.
Our security
specialists are available to assist you in any way that will improve
your security. If you have been experiencing "inventory
shortages", please call our office and speak with one of our
specialist security analysts who will arrange an appointment to
inspect the existing premises and/or review your plans for a new
structure.
We hope you will
consider the advantages of our expertise and services in the area of
industrial security.
Sincerely,
