SUPPLY CHAIN SECURITY

2 BSI Supply Chain Security Solutions

Ensuring cargo integrity, as well as timely and in-tact delivery, isoften complicated by a lack of accurate visibility into operationalrisk. Unique challenges of country of origin, transportationinfrastructure, supplier norms, and product-handling proceduresregularly result in product theft, tampering, loss, and theintroduction of unmanifested cargo into legitimate shipments.

Manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors worldwide lose productwhich ultimately affects profitability. BSI’s global cargo lossestimate for 2011 is $19.4 billion; the vast majority, an estimated86 percent, of loss occurs in transit. Each geographic regionpresents unique challenges: soft-sided trucks in Europe are

lucrative targets for cargo thieves, stowaways, and contrabandsmugglers; the lack of secured parking locations coupled withorganized ethnic gangs operating in the U.S. leads to a high rateof theft; counterweighted air shipments originating in LatinAmerica and parts of Asia highlight air transit chain of custodygaps. From a business continuity perspective, threats to thesupply chain threaten the whole enterprise. There is also acompliance angle. Governments are applying greater scrutiny to traders’ supply chain risk management and supplier oversight practices.
