FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Why would you expect to find overpayments in a system that my external and/or internal auditors review annually?
A: External and internal auditors work with a materiality level that is not intended for a line by line item analysis.
Overpayments may not have a material impact on financial statements on an annual basis,
but can add up to a significant amount over greater periods of time.
Q: What involvement will my people have in this engagement?
A: This review typically requires assistance from your AP, IT, and Procurement departments.
This assistance primarily consists of data extraction, planning and update meetings and claim entry.
Q: How are fees for this service determined, and when are the fees paid?
A: Fees are based on a percentage of the value you receive from our services.
Fees are not due until recoveries are secured.
Q: Why should I engage the services of AP Insights now?
A: While no statute of limitations exist on recovering vendor overpayments, pursuing claims over
two years old can be difficult, and put strain on a vendor relationship.
Delaying an Accounts Payable review not only delays the collection of overpayments,
but may also result in money permanently lost.
