Terrorist threats complicated these efforts. Costs to secure the supply chain are estimated to reach 151 billion USD annually (Russell and Saldanha 2003). Motor and air carriers are expected to incur an extra 2 billion in costs (Wolfe 2001). Warehouses are expected to incur an extra cost of 1 to 2 per square foot (Warehousing Education and Research Council 2004). It has been estimated that ports will incur 1.1 billion in initial security expenses and an extra 656 million annually. Additional considerations include holding excess inventory to buffer against supply chain disraption (Lee and Whang 2003), a decreased ability to deliver goods on time due to new security processes and measures (Dobie 2005), and an increase in cycle times and lead-times that result (Lee and Whang 2003). [Pg.294]
