Practice: Utility & Cost Recovery

Your utility bills contain errors. This practice finds the money.

Billing errors, missed tax exemptions, wrong rate schedules, and avoidable demand charges hide in plain sight on utility invoices. We audit every line, recover what you are owed, and fix what keeps recurring.

No Find, No Fee on recovery work.

What We Do

Built on years as a utility tax analyst and demand analyst. We know exactly where billing errors hide.

Utility Bill Auditing

Line-by-line review of electric, gas, water, and sewer invoices against tariffs, meters, and contracts. Errors identified, documented, and taken to the utility for correction.

Utility Tax Recovery

Sales tax and utility tax exemptions your organization qualifies for but never claimed, identified and filed for refund. You only pay when we find savings.

Rate & Tariff Analysis

Your usage profile tested against every rate schedule you qualify for. Where a better schedule exists, we build the case and manage the switch.

Demand Charge Reduction

Demand profiles analyzed for peaks that drive billing demand, with operational changes ranked by savings.

Utility Data & Billing Automation

Bill data extraction, portfolio-wide utility accounting, and the recurring reports that keep future errors from hiding.

How Recovery Works

Four steps from invoice stack to recovered dollars.

1

Collect

Twelve to thirty-six months of invoices and rate agreements, gathered with minimal load on your staff.

2

Audit

Every line tested against tariff, tax status, meter data, and contract. Findings documented to filing grade.

3

Recover

Refund claims and billing corrections filed with the utility and taxing authority, tracked to payment.

4

Prevent

Rate corrections and monitoring so the same errors do not quietly return next year.
