At a glance, here’s how we deliver measurable value to our clients — with no risk, no upfront cost, and minimal disruption:
Expense Reduction is Our Focus
Unlike businesses juggling operations, vendors, and shifting priorities, cost savings is our full-time job.
Real Market Intelligence
We negotiate for thousands of clients daily, giving us unique insight into what your peers and competitors are actually paying.
Minimal Disruption
80%+ of the time, clients keep their current vendors. When change is recommended, it’s entirely your choice.
Wide Reach, Local Presence
With over 350 offices across North America, we support clients wherever they do business.
Technology & Tools
We use advanced billing error detection software and continuously monitor vendors to ensure ongoing savings. Vital but hugely time consuming, done on our time, not yours.
Expert Team
Our 150+ full-time staff includes dedicated analysts who monitor markets, negotiate directly with vendors, and deliver results. Vital for the ever changing vendors markets.
Proven Pricing Database
Built over years, our best-in-class pricing benchmark data base, allows us to identify overcharges and missed opportunities.
Risk-Free Engagement
If we don’t find savings with equal or better services, there’s no charge. You’re never obligated to accept recommendations. Remain in complete control.
Fully Independent
We work only for our clients — not vendors — and our loyalty is 100% to you.
Hands-Off Implementation
We handle the entire implementation process — no extra work for your team.
Success-Based Compensation
We’re only paid a share of actual savings, not until three months after they’ve been implemented.

Waste
How predictable is your waste every month?
Variability in your waste from month-to-month makes a big difference to certain service providers.
Is your container size and collection frequency optimized?
Finding a provider that is both cost effective and meets your needs can be challenging.
Are your waste disposal fees changing frequently over the course of the year?
A professional audit of your expenses can get to the bottom of it.
Merchant Services
Do you reference the "effective rate" to evaluate how competitive your processing fees are?
A blended pricing structure makes it more difficult to fully understand all the factors impacting your fees.
Do you know how your current processing environment impacts your processing fees?
How you process payments and capture data can have a big impact on your monthly fees.
Have you asked your processor to provide you an "interchange-plus pricing" quote?
This pricing structure is often the least expensive and most transparent option.
Telecom
Have you conducted a recent usage audit across your telecommunications system?
In many cases, we find inefficiencies and redundancies in the number of lines and features.
Have you considered moving to a Voice over IP platform?
Cloud based telecommunications systems typically provide unique features at lower costs.
Do you know when your current plan automatically renews?
Companies typically only have a 30-day window to make changes to their current contract.
Shipping
Have you considered splitting your shipping business across multiple vendors?
Vendors tend to specialize in certain areas so playing to their unique strengths can reduce your overall costs.
Are you paying for unnecessary delivery guarantees?
Being more flexible on delivery times can significantly reduce your costs.
Do you review your monthly statements to ensure the correct charge codes are used?
Charge codes can be very confusing and require a detailed review to ensure you are being charged correctly.
Compressed Gases
Do you think your compressed gases expenses are written in stone?
Commodity markets can be complex and confusing, making it difficult for business owners and managers to navigate.
Are you certain there are no billing errors in your invoices?
There are opportunities to optimize pricing structures and recover billing errors.
Are you receiving all tax benefits available to you?
Your business might be missing out on significant savings opportunities.
