Why Supply Chain Security Matters

The Weakest Link
Determines Your
Whole Network's Safety

Modern supply chains span hundreds of touchpoints — distribution centres, cross-dock facilities, trucking routes, rail yards, and last-mile delivery. A breach at any one of them can cripple your entire operation. Cavallo's supply chain security division specialises in protecting every node of that network, from the moment goods enter your facility to the moment they reach their destination.

We work with retailers, manufacturers, logistics operators, and third-party logistics providers (3PLs) across British Columbia to build resilient, documented security programs that satisfy insurance requirements, regulatory bodies, and your own operational standards.

What We Guard Against

Supply Chain Threat Profile

From cargo theft and pilferage to internal collusion and facility breaches, our officers are trained to recognise and respond to the full spectrum of supply chain risks.

Cargo Theft

Theft of full or partial trailer loads during transit, at rest stops, or at distribution centres. Our GPS-tracked patrols and seal integrity checks close this window.

Internal Pilferage

Employee theft and collusion between staff and external actors. Cavallo implements strict access controls, inventory audits, and insider threat protocols at every facility.

Facility Intrusion

Unauthorized access to warehouses, loading docks, and perimeter areas. We combine static guards, CCTV monitoring, and alarm response to detect and deter intrusions.

Unauthorized Access

Tailgating, badge sharing, and social engineering at entry points. Our guards enforce strict credential verification and maintain detailed access logs for every entry event.

Route & Schedule Deviation

Drivers deviating from approved routes or schedules to facilitate theft. We monitor fleet movements and investigate any unscheduled stops or detours in real time.

Vandalism & Sabotage

Intentional damage to facilities, vehicles, or inventory that disrupts operations. Visible guard presence and rapid alarm response significantly reduce these incidents.

How We Work

Our Supply Chain Security Process

A structured four-phase approach from initial assessment through to ongoing operational management.

01

Assess

We audit your facility layout, cargo flows, access points, existing security infrastructure, and historical incident data to build a complete risk picture.

02

Design

Our team engineers a layered security program — guards, technology, and protocols — calibrated to your specific threats, budget, and operational schedule.

03

Deploy

Licensed officers are assigned, trained on-site, and integrated with our 24/7 dispatch centre. All systems go live with clear escalation procedures.

04

Manage

Ongoing supervision, incident reporting, monthly reviews, and performance benchmarking ensure your program stays effective as threats evolve.

01 — Warehouse & Distribution Centre Security

Our warehouse security officers are trained for the specific demands of high-turnover distribution environments — shift-based coverage, dock access control, visitor management, and after-hours perimeter patrol. We protect raw materials, work-in-progress inventory, and finished goods from receiving through to dispatch.

  • 24/7 static and shift-based warehouse guards
  • Dock door access control & yard management
  • Trailer seal integrity checks on outbound loads
  • CCTV monitoring integrated with on-site officers
  • Inventory discrepancy investigation & reporting
  • Loading bay crowd & traffic flow management

02 — Cargo & In-Transit Security

Cargo is most vulnerable during transit — at rest stops, weigh stations, and unsecured parking. Cavallo provides escort vehicle coverage for high-value loads, GPS-monitored patrol routes, and real-time driver check-in protocols that ensure loads reach their destination intact.

  • Armed & unarmed escort services for high-value loads
  • Secure truck stop surveillance & overnight protection
  • GPS fleet monitoring with deviation alerts
  • Seal verification & manifest cross-checking
  • Unscheduled stop investigation & escalation
  • Coordination with RCMP and local police along routes

03 — Loading Dock & Receiving Security

The loading dock is where supply chains are most exposed — high volumes of personnel, vehicles, and materials changing hands quickly. Cavallo officers maintain order, verify credentials, and prevent unauthorized removal of goods at every dock door and receiving window.

  • Dock door access control & vehicle identification
  • Outbound load documentation & seal checks
  • Visitor and contractor sign-in protocols
  • Receiving window crowd & queue management
  • Pilferage deterrence & suspicious activity monitoring
  • Shift handover documentation & incident logging

04 — High-Value Freight & Luxury Goods Protection

Electronics, pharmaceuticals, jewellery, and luxury goods represent disproportionately attractive targets. Cavallo provides enhanced security programs — including background-screened officers, GPS tracking, and encrypted in-transit monitoring — for clients whose cargo profiles carry elevated risk.

  • Enhanced screening & background-cleared officers
  • GPS tracked, covert in-transit monitoring
  • Temperature & tamper-evident cargo seals
  • Insurance-compliant security documentation
  • Secure storage at transit hubs and cross-docks
  • Chain-of-custody documentation & audit trails

05 — Security Technology & Live Monitoring

Technology multiplies the effectiveness of on-ground officers. Cavallo's command centre provides 24/7 live monitoring of your CCTV feeds, alarm events, and access control logs — dispatching guards and coordinating emergency response the moment anything unusual is detected.

  • 24/7 live CCTV monitoring from BC-based command centre
  • Alarm event verification & false alarm filtering
  • Access control system management & audit logs
  • Mobile camera trailer deployment for temporary sites
  • Thermal imaging & ANPR camera integration
  • Real-time incident alerts via SMS, email & phone
"A single cargo theft doesn't just cost you the value of the goods — it costs you a customer relationship, an insurance premium increase, and potentially your reputation. We understand that at Cavallo, which is why every officer we place is trained to think like a logistics manager first and a security professional second."
— Cavallo Security, Operations Director
