Theft and vandalism in buildings and construction sites is a rapidly growing problem contractors face today. The large black markets that exist, allow anyone to sell stolen merchandise from construction areas such as: cables, wires, office trailers and building materials.

According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, the construction industry in the United States lost nearly $1 billion in 2001 to equipment and tools theft. The average contractor loses more than $13,000 a year due to theft and vandalism. No known studies have determined the distribution of the theft losses among the different sectors of the construction industry. Many insurance companies state that equipment losses due to vandalism alone account for up to 22% of large contractor equipment losses.
