The story
Problem and Deployment
The problem
What Broke
The camp's paper sign-in system collapsed every time a new contractor crew rotated in — unmanifested vehicles, missing orientations, and two after-hours incidents traced to unbadged visitors.
The deployment
What We Deployed
1Northwest ran two-officer gate teams on 12-hour rotations, digitized manifest verification at the gate with nightly reconciliation, and delivered a 15-minute security orientation to every arriving crew in the camp's own mess hall.

More Case Studies
Diamond Mine
A tier-one diamond operator was losing hours at the winter-road gate during peak February throughput. We rebuilt gate discipline around the barcode manifest — and the closures stopped.
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
Reliability-cleared, Inuktitut-speaking officers for a five-community ministerial tour — mobilized inside eight weeks, zero incidents across fourteen event days.
