Plant and equipment identification
Plant and equipment is often hard to investigate because of the difficulty in finding the correct identification number or, having found an ID number, the difficulty in finding a theft or owner record.
Register yourself and your force now and gain access to our complete online Plant & Equipment Identification Guide. It doesn’t cost anything and provides pages of all the most commonly stolen equipment, with diagrams showing Serial No./VIN plate location, correct ID information areas, theft targeting, registered ownership and threat information.
Briefings and training courses
Courses include how to spot stolen items, illegal reporting of theft for insurance claims, equipment trafficking and help with identifying stolen equipment. Our aim is to increase awareness of the severity of equipment crime and help you stop it.
