ISC offers Loss and Damage Prevention service which help clients save money and make their organization more efficient. Highly experienced professionals, with the "know-how" that can only be acquired from building extensive business experience on the strong foundations of governmental security service, carefully inspect the premises and evaluate the entire operation in order to identify cracks and loopholes in the control procedures and management oversights which "invite" theft, facilitate fraud and might increase the level of loss and depreciation. Among the subjects included in a loss and damage prevention survey are: * Process for purchasing services, equipment and    merchandise * Reception and distribution of merchandise * Management of warehouses and storage areas * Discounts, credits, returns from customers and    to suppliers * Approval of payment orders and issuing checks * Post-dated and returned checks * Recruiting and hiring personnel * Physical security, security systems * Handling unusual situations During the survey, ISC will identify the weak-points in the organization which are likely to cause direct damage and/or financial losses. Our experience, in many countries, has taught us that the source of these weak-points is often the lack of work procedures, inappropriate or out-of-date procedures, or the lack of supervisory and control mechanisms. These result in immediate financial losses and reduced morale of managers and employees.
