Challenge
Pre-handoff phase of a 4-story mixed-use build. Two prior weekends had documented copper-wire theft from the second floor. GC was facing schedule slip and material reorder.
Approach
- Marked unit on-site for nightly walk-throughs 21:00-05:00.
- Randomized hourly tour pattern — no predictable timing.
- Direct radio coordination with GC superintendent on suspicious activity.
- Combined fire-watch coverage during hot-work permit windows.
Result
Zero documented theft incidents over the remaining 14 weeks of the project. GC retained Stormhammer for two follow-on projects.
