To combat theft — both petty and grand — P. Allen Spriggs, vice president of surveillance and corporate security for Bozzuto’s, installed video cameras from a few different providers, including Axis Communications. Video surveillance combats thievery, and also ensures quality control by checking that workers follow established procedures when handling customer goods. Video also cuts down on workers’ compensation claims. Bozzuto’s has been using video surveillance for 13 years, but recently Spriggs made the switch from analog cameras to IP cameras that can share data on the company’s information network, allowing easier collaboration and storage on DVDs.
