Prove the effect first.
Then invest.
1 to 2 months pilot. We measure your shrinkage before and after. A works council agreement template is included from day 1. After the pilot, you decide: fixed rental or purchase.
Internal shrinkage continues for years.
Three hurdles typically block any countermeasure: high upfront investment, possible works council objections, unproven effectiveness. Our pilot clears all three.
Shrinkage continues because detectors are seen as too expensive and too complex.
What typically blocks plant managers:
- ·High one-time investment per site before any effect is proven
- ·Works council negotiations drag on without a template
- ·Shrinkage reduction unknown in advance, no before/after benchmark
- ·If the effect fails to materialize, the investment still sits on the balance sheet
Pilot first. Investment decision with numbers on the table.
What you get in concrete terms:
- Pilot over 1 to 2 months with before/after shrinkage measurement
- Works council agreement template from day 1
- Evaluation report after the pilot with your before/after shrinkage figures
- After the pilot: fixed rental or purchase, you decide based on the numbers
Industries with tangible internal shrinkage.
Five industrial sectors where high-value material flows pass through employee exits. This is where systematic exit screening has the most visible effect.
Recycling
Non-ferrous metals, precious metal fractions, scrap yards.
Pharmaceutical plants
API production and GxP areas.
Semiconductors
Wafer logistics and cleanroom access.
Distribution centers
DCs with peak-season spikes and seasonal staff.
Precious metal refineries
High-value material flows, controlled gates.
You decide after the pilot.
We start small. You see the effect. Only then do you decide on the long-term configuration.
Impact pilot with measurement
Garrett PD 6500i at the employee exit. We measure your shrinkage 30 days before the pilot as a benchmark, run the setup for 1 to 2 months and evaluate the effect afterwards.
- Shrinkage measurement 30 days before the pilot
- Detector operation at the employee exit over 1 to 2 months
- Evaluation report for management after the pilot
- Works council agreement template from day 1
Garrett PD 6500i at the employee gate. Optionally VMI 6040C at goods receipt.
- Fixed rental 24 months. Maintenance and insurance included
- Purchase at the current device list price as an alternative
- Service and maintenance still by DTI
- Roll-out to further sites with the same configuration
What a standard site actually saves.
Example calculation for a mid-size industrial or distribution site with a documented shrinkage rate.
Mid-size distribution center.
The average inventory loss in German retail and logistics is around 0.72 percent of revenue (EHI Retail Institute). Around 25 percent of that comes from internal sources.
For a 50 million EUR site, that is 90,000 EUR of internal shrinkage per year. Even a 30 percent shrinkage reduction saves 27,000 EUR per year.
Arrange an initial consultationPilot + fixed rental, year 1
With two sites following the same pattern: approx. 40,000 EUR net savings per year.
Indicative values from previous industry pilots. Specific figures are determined in your individual pilot and documented for your management.
From initial consultation to fixed rental in 5 steps.
From the request through works council preparation and pilot to a proven decision.
Request
Clarify site, material volume and shrinkage hypothesis in an initial consultation.
Works council
Agreement template as the basis for the works council discussion.
Pilot 1-2 months
Shrinkage measurement before the pilot, detector operation at the employee exit, measurement afterwards.
Evaluation
Shrinkage reduction proven in EUR per month. Results report for management.
Decision
Fixed rental or purchase. Roll-out to further sites optional.
One site. One pilot.
Proven ROI.
We start at one site, measure rigorously and decide together. Fixed rental or purchase, roll-out or stop. You carry no long-term risk.
Mon to Fri, 8 am to 5 pm. We reply to requests within 24 hours.
