Understanding the different nature of an effective, capable and capacity built supply chain security and dedicatedly monitored movement and control of cargo is essential to a robust supply chain security management. This management section will see how to synergise Man, Machine and Method (3M) with Deter, Detect, Delay and Deny (4D) of pilferages, losses, theft and hijacks in the nodes and modes of the Supply Chain. The precise handling of cargo in air, sea or land movement and cargo storage within the end to end supply chain will bring about an efficient and effective supply chain security. The focus will be on anticipation of threats and challenges and the mitigation applications to build a robust supply chain security management.
