Are your current LP tools keeping up—or are today’s thieves already one step ahead?

Theft tactics are evolving fast—from booster bags to internal collusion—and many retailers are finding their security setups haven’t kept pace. What I’ve noticed from working with some sharp LP teams is this: they’re not just adding more tech—they’re rethinking how it all works together.
They’re using tools like AI-enabled CCTV and analytics not because they’re shiny and new, but because they help reduce noise, focus on what matters, and catch patterns early. The goal isn’t “more gear”—it’s less stress, faster answers, and fewer reactive calls.
If your LP setup hasn’t evolved in a while, it might be worth asking: Are we reacting to shrink, or getting ahead of it? The best results often come from small improvements made before things go wrong.
