Recovery Audit Definition & Overview

Recovery Auditing is used by the world's top businesses and government entities to 'reconstruct' actual transactions from different data sources, comparing them to the terms agreed to by the “buyer” and “seller”.

Value is created for the 'buyer' when overpayments are found and cash is returned or recovered. Typically, amounts recovered vary based on:

• Scale or volume of payments made
• Complexity of the terms on which the payment is based
• Motivation of "payer" to recover overpayments

Recovery auditing also uncovers the fundamental or 'root' causes of the errors, processing systems insights and a better understanding of supplier performance.
