Supply Chain – The Challenge

• Shrinkage – shrinkage from distribution depots accounts for 21% of total shrinkage
• Warehouses and distribution depots - many companies proactively manage store security issues but fail to apply the same focus in warehouses and distribution depots
• Lack of understanding - security officers are placed on distribution sites with limited understanding of their role or the operational and security issues

Supply Chain Security Officers – The Advance Difference

• Loss prevention training - at Advance we understand that this is critical element for both the security officer and operations manager
• On-site training and assessments – these form a key part of our training programme
• Comprehensive performance assessments – conducted at your depot to give a full overview of how well the security function is performing
• No officer is deployed before they have completed tailored training
• Regular night visits from supervisors with full audit checks
