Supply Chain Security

Many companies manufacture high-value goods in their own factories. These goods are then sent down the distribution chain and are eventually delivered into the hands of the retailer. Along the way, the goods (your brands) are carried by land, sea and air to their destination; they may spend periods of time at ports, depots, warehouses, airfields and so forth.

These staging points, together with the vehicles, vessels, containers and aircraft to which your products are consigned, are seldom owned by you, the manufacturer. Which means that your stringent security measures, procedures and standards may not be observed as scrupulously by the third parties who handle your goods, whatever the contract may say.

We can undertake a complete review of factors that can affect the effectiveness of a supply chain, ranging from political upheaval to fraudulent suppliers, security system vulnerabilities and security breaches. Our logistics security team checks your hauliers, their vetting procedures and routes, the staging points between the goods leaving your factory and being delivered to the customer, the shipping companies, and the rest of this complex supply chain. This can lead to reduced exposure to theft, hijack and diversion, making for less expensive insurance premiums and enhanced profitability for your company.
