The International Business Awards^® recently named Shrink Analyzer among its 2025 Silver Stevie^® winners for Achievement in Technology Innovation. Purpose-built to offer deeper visibility into where, when and how losses occur, the platform aggregates radio-frequency identification- (RFID-)based inventory data to provide clear, actionable insights into total retail loss. The cloud-based loss prevention solution was selected for this recognition from more than 3,800 nominations from companies and individuals around the world.

“This submission exemplifies market-leading innovation in retail technology,” said one judge of the International Business Awards. “Sensormatic Solutions’ Shrink Analyzer redefines loss prevention by moving beyond exit-only data to provide item-level, location-specific insights across high-risk areas like employee entrances and BOPIS zones. By transforming RFID data into actionable intelligence, [Shrink Analyzer] equips retailers to proactively combat organized retail crime, internal theft and inventory distortion. In a time of rising retail crime, this outcome-driven, investigator-focused tool offers unmatched clarity and control—representing a bold leap forward in operational intelligence, profitability protection and industry-standard-setting innovation.”

The International Business Awards—the world’s premier business awards program—determines Stevie winners based on the scores of more than 250 executives worldwide. In their assessments, judges positioned Shrink Analyzer as “a benchmark achievement in technology, fully deserving of recognition,” and a “smart, forward-thinking innovation” in loss prevention. They also emphasized its efficacy in addressing “one of retail’s most pressing challenges—increasing shrink and organized retail crime—through a data-driven, scalable, and cloud-based platform.”

Shrink Analyzer’s recognition follows significant enhancements to the platform, extending the solution’s functionality beyond the exit, into new areas of the store. These new capabilities help retailers redefine loss prevention by extending analytics to previously unmonitored, high-risk areas such as employee entrances, receiving doors and in-store pickup zones, so they can:

• Pinpoint shrink events by location, department and item-level detail.
• Identify internal and employee-driven theft.
• Quantify financial impact by category.
• Gain real-time visibility into total loss events.
• Proactively address ORC and inventory distortion.
• Comprehensive reporting creates evidence packages with item-level data.

Shrink Analyzer is just one of the countless retail technology innovations pioneered by Sensormatic Solutions throughout its nearly six decades of operations. This particular breakthrough comes at a crucial time for retailers: amid a surge in shoplifting and ORC incidents and increased demand to redefine loss prevention for a new generation of retailers.

“To meet the moment, retailers need to take a multifaceted approach to shrink mitigation,” said Tony D’Onofrio, president of Sensormatic Solutions. “They need more than reactive reporting and data collection. They need systems that can turn that data into a portrait of their operations so they can identify the root causes of losses, assign accountability and act preemptively. That was the core belief driving Shrink Analyzer’s development, and it will continue to guide enhancements to the platform in the months and years to come.”
