The auditing department will verify the charges on the invoices making sure the charges do not exceed those allowed by contract, stamp the invoices “approved” for payment, and specify the amount to pay. If the invoice contains an error such as an added fuel charge, environmental fee, administration fee or a price increase, our auditors work to get those charges credited.

When an account first signs a management contract with us, we notify the current vendors of our involvement and request a copy of any and all existing service contracts. Upon receipt of a contract, the terms are reviewed in detail and documented in our database. We have an extensive database of vendors who are responsible and dependable to work with on a national basis to meet your waste disposal needs.

Our consultants are highly educated in the waste disposal industry and thoroughly research each market for cost savings and recycling opportunities. We obtain the current standard of waste and recyclable materials handling and ascertain whether there are any unique service needs at each facility. Current and past invoices are requested from the vendor, and we record a benchmark of current costs. We use many factors to determine the appropriate service level for each facility to include site surveys, sales volumes, manager opinions, similar business types, etc.

Once we establish the most efficient service level and a new contract is negotiated, we prepare monthly financial impact statements for our clients. Simply, we provide savings spreadsheets that show the original service levels and costs compared to the new service and costs, so the tangible savings are easy to quantify and verify. We also provide other customized reports at the client’s request.
