About Us

Detection of Overpayments, Processing Errors, and Systemic Issues

• An A/P Review helps identify and correct errors such as duplicate payments, overpayments, return merchandise, rebates and missed discounts.

Assist Procurement with Contract Negotiations

• A/P Review results can be used to benchmark vendor performance against industry standards. This information is crucial for negotiating contracts that align with best practices and ensure high-quality service.

Fraud Prevention

• Regular audits can detect fraudulent activities early. By reviewing transactions and verifying the legitimacy of payments, businesses can prevent and mitigate the risk of fraud.

Cost Savings

• By identifying discrepancies and ensuring that all payments are accurate, businesses can save money. Recovering overpayments and can free up working capital. This additional working capital can then be reinvested into the business, supporting growth and operational needs.

Compliance and Risk Management

• A/P Reviews ensure that the company complies with internal policies and external regulations. This reduces the risk of penalties and legal issues, ensuring that the business operates within the legal framework.

Enhanced Vendor Relationships

• By ensuring invoices are paid within payment terms, businesses can maintain good relationships with their suppliers.

Data Accuracy and Integrity

• Regular reviews will ensure that the data in the A/P system is accurate and reliable.

The duration of the Account Payable Review is based on several factors:

• Scope of Work
• Data Acquisition
• Auditable Spend
• Regions Included (Americas, EMEA, and APAC)

We work with clients to set expectations after our data review is complete.

We work off a contingency fee and only will invoice on approved claims.

• Clearview Accounting Solutions is proud to be a female and veteran-owned company. Our diverse leadership brings unique perspectives and a strong commitment to excellence. We leverage our extensive experience and dedication to
  provide exceptional service and innovative solutions for our clients.
• We ensure a 15%-20% reduction in claims year-over-year by involving all members from A/P, Sourcing/Procurement, and Site Locations. This collaborative approach helps minimize processing errors after the first campaign.
• We are transparent about ‘root cause’ issues and explicitly identify where they are occurring. We do not batch the claims into single line item, which gives you no guidance about where the issue is occurring.
• We have developed comprehensive reports to aid in the training of client associates.
• Our associates are evaluated based on year-over-year claim reduction rather than revenue. While other A/P recovery firms typically budget for a 3%-5% increase in the next campaign, we have adopted the opposite approach.
• All claims undergo QA before being submitted to clients. We recognize that our client contacts have other job responsibilities, and we strive to minimize the time required by them. Most firms utilize a sample approach when QA’ing claims, which causes client frustration.
• We adhere to the clients claim tolerance request, which typically is $100 per claim. All A/P Recovery firms set their own claim tolerance, and this typically starts at $1,500 per claim.
• We strive to be recognized as a preferred partner, rather than just a contractor or consulting company. Our marketing strategy is performance-driven, distinguishing us from other firms that focus primarily on revenue.
• We are not focused on upselling software on a SaaS basis. Our primary focus is delivering service-based solutions, rather than trying to upsell our clients into purchasing software. Unlike other A/P recovery firms, whose main priority is selling software on a SaaS basis for revenue recognition, we prioritize providing exceptional service and value to our clients.
• If we have the necessary data, we will create ad hoc reports for our clients as needed. While this can be cost-intensive, we prioritize personalized service. Unlike other firms that only offer standard reports for all clients, we tailor our reports to meet the specific needs of each client.
• We incorporate contract compliance techniques into our A/P Review, conducting deep dives when reviewing returns, warranty credits, rebates, pricing, prepayments,
  and third-party labor. Unlike other firms that focus on low-hanging fruit to meet monthly revenue targets, we prioritize thorough and comprehensive reviews.
