Asset & Loss Prevention

Reduce shrink and loss while improving performance and preserving a consumer-friendly experience

Demands on your time are growing, but staffing is not

Shrink is up. Fraud is up. All the solutions you have in place help you, but they don’t allow you to respond fast enough. Organized retail crime (ORC) gangs use the return counter like an ATM.

Employees are sweethearting total strangers in the hopes of garnering a few more approval points on customer surveys. Meanwhile, new risk areas are being introduced through new procedures and updated floor plans.

How are you going to drive down shrink and fraud without alienating good consumers?

Hands-free and closed-loop system maximize results

You could accomplish much more with the right solutions in place. Imagine having a system that predicts and prevents most forms of consumer fraud completely hands-free—frauds that other solutions miss. At the same time, the solution improves service to good customers.

Imagine using an EBR and case management solution that made your investigations easier with features like a natural language query writer; an organized, closed loop analytics system; and single sign-on from any desktop or mobile device to access full versions of the solution. Imagine a customer support team that understands your company and is eager to help you.
