Logistics & Supply Chain has specific expectations for agent audit. Prefactor maps them to runtime controls and audit-grade artefacts.
The logistics & supply chain challenge for agent audit
Cross-border data flows, customs sensitivity, and high transaction volume require both governance and cost control.
For agent audit specifically, this means combining real-time runtime controls with evidence collection auditors and risk teams expect.

How Prefactor delivers agent audit for logistics & supply chain
Pre-deployment validation — eval suites per agent, datasets versioned with audit links, champion-challenger evaluation between versions.
Runtime enforcement — policy-as-code controls what agents can do, approval routing for high-impact actions, per-agent spend caps, kill switches.
Continuous monitoring — drift detection, per-agent quality scores, cost and latency monitoring, population stability tracking.
Audit and evidence — tamper-evident logs of every agent action with cryptographic hashing, auditor-ready exports, change management records, evidence of human oversight where required.
Implementation pattern
Week 1-2: Shadow deployment - non-production, real traffic, observe but don't enforce
Week 3-4: Pilot with one production agent - passive policy first, then blocking
Week 5-8: Production enforcement with approval flows integrated
Quarter 2+: Expand to additional agents on same governance model
