What Broke
The facility's losses weren't coming over the fence — they were driving out the front gate on falsified pickup paperwork, roughly one trailer every six weeks.
The deployment
What We Deployed
1Northwest rebuilt gate verification around four-way matching — bill of lading, plate, seal, and driver ID — with every discrepancy held at the gate and escalated to a supervisor before release.

Provincial Retailer
A regional grocery chain was bleeding 2.4% to an organized retail-crime ring. Plainclothes officers on a mirrored rotation cut shrink to 0.7% in one quarter.
Territorial Government
