Introduction:
The threat of cargo terrorism has prompted the US authorities to impose tougher regulations on the movement of goods into and out of the US. As these measures begin to take effect, there are massive implications for international trade and the logistics companies that facilitate it. Security in the Supply Chain explains how such companies can meet these new obligations, and tackle cargo theft.
Scope:
* Sector coverage: Logistics and Express
* Geographic coverage: Global
Report Highlights:
The persistent threat of cargo crime, and tighter regulation of air, land and maritime transportation, mean that logistics companies cannot afford to stand still.
All logistics companies need to ensure that they invest sufficiently in gaining and retaining high levels of security. This includes investment in processes, training, expertise and technology. Security considerations should be an integral element of all operational and strategic decisions.
In today’s threatening environment, security can be a key differentiator for a logistics provider, and can offer value-add opportunities. Suppliers of valuable hi-tech or pharmaceutical products, in particular, require supply chain partners capable of delivering their products safely and on time.
Reasons to Purchase:
* Understand the nature and scope of new security regulations
* Assess the threats and opportunities represented by the current security environment
* Better tailor products to the needs of clients
