Pricing Compliance Review and Recovery

Identify overpayments and build your bottom line

Pricing compliance can be a costly issue that silently erodes your company profits. Common sources of errors include incorrect keying of data, the wrong units of measure, currency issues, unapplied reductions—and more. One indicator of the potential scope: Pricing compliance reviews conducted for a global auto manufacturer are uncovering almost $20 million in pricing discrepancies annually. In fact, a single, misplaced decimal point in the price of a high-volume part was found to have triggered a $250,000 loss.

apexanalytix auditors skilled in pricing compliance can help you improve your company’s profitability by uncovering hidden issues—delivering a significant return on investment and improved cash flow. Our carefully structured, technology-enabled processes help us dig deep to assure we find and recover what you’ve lost.
