Mitigating an organization’s exposure to risks of unethical and fraudulent conduct, both internally and externally requires trained and experienced professionals. Our Financial Investigation Services team has been instrumental in establishing dedicated investigative units within public and private organizations to detect, investigate, and deter fraud.

Just as important as dealing with fraud is minimizing your organization's exposure to unethical conduct–both internally and externally. By assembling a multi-disciplinary team of audit, investigative, and legal professionals, our specialists are able to consult in a wide-range of areas, including:

• Identifying potential fraudulent transactions

• Pre-employment screenings

• Vendor/supplier due diligence and analysis

• Competitor intelligence

• Crisis management

We have developed the Proactive Procurement Fraud Prevention Model.
This Model focuses on:

• Forensic Systems Review

• Communication and Training Assessment

• Data Mining Techniques

• Vendor Audits

It is one of the most highly effective methods for significantly reducing the amount of fraud in the procurement and disbursement functions of an Organization. Common procurement frauds often detected by the Model include fictitious vendors, vendor over-billing schemes, corruption schemes, and other related frauds.

Often, we are called upon to review other processes within the organization to determine potential exposure to fraudulent transactions.
