Use this checklist by zone and shift. Record each gap, its owner, target date, and verification method so the review produces action rather than a one-time score.
01
Doors, docks, and yard
Control the boundary between public, employee, carrier, and restricted space.
- Alarm and report forced or propped doors
- Separate visitor, driver, and employee access
- Inspect seals, locks, trailer positions, and yard lighting
- Define after-hours delivery and vehicle exceptions
02
Video and alarm coverage
Test whether systems show enough detail and reach the right person.
- Review entrances, docks, aisles, cages, parking, and perimeter views
- Check timestamps, retention, camera health, and export permissions
- Test intrusion and panic signals with the monitoring provider
- Confirm alerts include the correct camera and zone instructions
03
People, inventory, and response
Operational controls reduce the opportunity hidden inside normal activity.
- Use individual credentials and review inactive users
- Separate ordering, receiving, picking, and adjustment permissions
- Investigate repeat exceptions by zone, item, shift, and carrier
- Document contacts, verification steps, dispatch rules, and incident review
