Employee Awareness
Training
Even the best of programs can and will fail without trained employees executing the plan and company mission. Brosnan Retail Loss Prevention training programs help to strengthen the skills of employees at all levels of the organization and educate them on their specific role in the protection of company assets — including the direct connection between their role and the profitability of the organization.
Newsletter
Monthly company Loss Prevention Newsletters are an important and cost-effective tool for engaging employees at all levels of the organization. In addition to bolstering employee engagement, the Loss Prevention Newsletter provides employees a consistent line-of-sight across the organization, informs the team on important changes to policy and seasonal goals, and serves as an invaluable form of recognition for team members who exceed expectations and performance in their roles in supporting the organization’s Loss Prevention efforts.
Inventory Meetings
While Pre-Physical Inventory meetings generally fall under the heading of “training,” these are highly specific in scope. The goal of these meetings is to ensure the accurate execution of Physical Inventory (PI) Preparation and of the actual count on the day of the PI process. Brosnan Retail Loss Prevention consultants are also available for auditing the PI process conducted by company employees or vendors contracted to perform the count.

High-Risk Stores Programs
Creation, Development, and Measurements
People and processes vary from location to location. As a result, not all environments experience the same level of performance. When inventory losses and profitability fall outside of company expectations, the Brosnan Retail Loss Prevention team can create a High-Risk Stores Program (HRSP), sometimes referred to as a Target Store Program, within the Loss Prevention Program already implemented in the organization. The High-Risk Stores Program is a highly prescriptive approach to addressing specific threats and performance issues that lead to higher losses and negative impacts on profitability.
The process of creating an HRSP begins with a comprehensive analysis of KPIs, along with lagging and leading indicators, to identify the appropriate number of stores and specific locations which should be part of the HRSP. Once all analysis is complete, we present our client with a list of stores to participate in the program, which typically lasts one full year or business cycle. Key measurements are taken throughout the year to evaluate the effectiveness of the program and make any necessary adjustments. It has been our experience that all HRSP stores outperform non-HRSP stores for every single business cycle. In many cases, there is also a direct correlation with the performance of peripheral results like sales increases, reduction in turnover, etc.
Organized Retail Crime (ORC)
While assessing the impact of ORC on the retail industry has traditionally been a very difficult task, the FBI estimates that U.S. retail losses from ORC thefts are in excess of $30 billion per year. The Brosnan Retail Loss Prevention team takes a comprehensive approach to addressing ORC concerns at our client’s locations. We have the resources to get the most out of our consultants’ expertise in this type of business threat.
