"I met with many different fence companies prior to hiring Lannis. I have included a reference picture we used when talking about the project with each company. It is the first picture in the series. When I first met Cody, I was impressed with his professionalism and knowledge, he seemed very in-tune with what we wanted to accomplish. I reviewed different companies pricing estimates. Lannis' was not close to the cheapest but also not the most expensive. However, I felt good about my experience with Cody, so I called him to move forward with the project. We ran into a few hiccups along the way, but eventually we made it to install day. Day 1 the crew showed up with the materials. My wife immediately noticed an issue. The wire that was provided for the project was not what was requested. It was a cheap flimsy rubber coated wire that was pliable with your fingers. Not near strong enough to keep our dogs from destroying it at their first chance. You can see in the photos below that even with the additional supports (we did not want) the wire is still very flimsy and was even broken in spots during installation. We reached out to Cody to bring light to the issue (prior to install). After talking with Cody about the wire, he spoke with the project manager Tom. Tom agreed that the wire was not sufficient for the design. This is where the problems really begin. We were basically told that they could not get the wire that would be necessary to complete the project they originally quoted. That the only solution was to add supports across the design so that the lack of strength in the wire would not be an issue. This fix would cost us and additional $1600 Literally the definition of bait and switch. We had already moved into the house at this point and we both work full time. We needed to get this fence completed ASAP so our dogs could go out on their own during the day. Feeling backed into a corner we agreed to their solution. I then talked with the installers and inquired how long they thought it would take with the design change. This was on a Friday. He told me they could have it done by the end of the weekend. Saturday comes and they have the majority of the posts dug. Sunday nobody shows up. No problem, I wasn't sure if they work on Sunday or not. Then nobody shows Monday-Wednesday. Wednesday evening, I realize why. They won't send workers back out until I have signed the new invoice with the extra $1600. I sign it electronically; workers show up the next day and finish the project... kinda. We agreed that the gap between fence and ground would be about 1 inch. As you can see in the pictures, the gap around 90% of the fence is closer to 6-12 inches. Large enough for my small dog to weasel his way right under. There were also several rotten (black) boards being used. I noticed this during the install and immediately texted Cody with pictures. He acknowledged that those were mistakes, and they would be easy to rectify. He would have them swap out the rotten boards and fix the gaps at the bottom. As you can see in the pictures. We still have rotten boards, and to "fix" the gaps at the bottom, they just spread the dirt from the post holes around the bottom of the fence. As it rains their fix just erodes away. What doesn't erode away is the concrete mounds they left in my yard. Also pictured.\nI never needed Lannis to go above and beyond. I only needed them to do what they said they would do when we agreed to their quote. The fence we got is nothing like the one we signed up for. I have never heard from Cody post install. Also, you'll notice in their pictures they put their little plaque on your fence, so everyone knows who installed it... Not mine. I wonder why?"
Supplychainsecurity (also "supply-chainsecurity") activities aim to enhance the security of the supply chain or value chain, the transport and logistics systems for the world's cargo and to "facilitate legitimate trade". [1]
Supplychainsecurity is an aspect of business operations management that focuses on mitigating risks related to external suppliers, vendors, logistics and transportation within a company’s network of supply.
Supplychain risk management can be incorporated into existing risk management processes, such as those described in Managing Information Security Risk (NIST SP 800-39), the NIST Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure (the Cybersecurity Framework) and Integrating Cybersecurity and Enterprise Risk Management (NISTIR 8286).
The objective of supply chain security is to identify, evaluate, and mitigate risks that arise when working with third parties in the supply chain. It includes both digital and physical security aspects of software, services, and products.
Supplychainsecurity encompasses the strategies, protocols, and technologies that protect an organization’s entire network of resources, processes, and partnerships from malicious attacks and unauthorized access.
Supplychainsecurity best practices explained with key frameworks and standards. Improve resilience, meet regulations, and protect your business operations.
Supply chain security refers to the systems, procedures, and technologies designed to safeguard the integrity of the supply chain from physical and cyber threats. It includes protecting goods in transit, ensuring supplier credibility, and mitigating digital vulnerabilities.
Supplychainsecurity isn’t just a theoretical risk. It has real consequences. Here are three recent incidents that highlight the vulnerabilities businesses face: In 2023, a major security flaw in the MOVEit file transfer software was exploited by the Cl0p ransomware group.
Supply chain security refers to the defense of the entire supply chain, such as suppliers, manufacturers, logistics, IT infrastructure, and third-party suppliers, against cybersecurity threats, physical threats, and operational disruptions.
This article explores the core pillars of supplychainsecurity and offers insights into how companies can protect operations, brand reputation, and customer trust.
Conclusion Supply chain security constitutes one of the ten fundamental cybersecurity requirements central to the NIS2 directive. This aspect is anticipated to prompt considerable activity, especially among in-scope organisations whose essential services rely on complex supply chains.
Learn about supply chain security, including how to protect physical goods and digital assets while managing risks with suppliers and vendors. Supply chain security refers to the measures organisations take to protect goods and assets throughout their supplier ecosystem.

Supplychainsecurity has never been more important to protect the flow of goods and resources. With supply chains more interconnected, and many spanning across multiple countries, supply chains are now more vulnerable than ever.
Supply chain security is management of the supply chain that focuses on risk management of external suppliers, vendors, logistics, and transportation. It identifies, analyzes, and mitigates risks associated with working with outside organizations as part of your supply chain.

UNDER SECRETARY HELBERG: Yeah, so it – Australia is an essential part of the supplychain, because it is a minerals superpower.
Supply chain security encompasses a set of measures and practices designed to safeguard the flow of goods and services from production to delivery. It addresses the potential risks and threats that could compromise the safety, quality, and reliability of products within the supply chain.

In recent years certain companies in the American food supplychain have even settled civil suits accusing them of price fixing for tens of millions of dollars. Food supply sectors including meat processing, seed, fertilizer, and equipment have similar vulnerabilities to price fixing and other anti-competitive practices.
