ORC Hit Map + Real-Time Booster Alerting

Detect repeat-theft patterns across stores and surface real-time alerts to associates when likely ORC activity is occurring in high-target aisles (tools, outdoor power, electrical) — then dispatch targeted aisle checks and response playbooks.

This is the source use-case definition used for the pipeline.

Problem

Organized retail crime crews hit many stores repeatedly, sometimes multiple times per day, and store teams lack timely visibility to recognize patterns and respond consistently.

Repeat incidents across locations go unnoticed until losses accumulate
Associates don’t know when a store is in an active ORC pattern (same items, same time windows)
LP response is inconsistent across stores and shifts
High-theft aisles (tools/electrical/outdoor power) require proactive coverage without harming the shopper experience
