How much of last year’s staffing spend can you prove?
You pay a dozen staffing suppliers against contracts, rate cards and approved hours held in different systems. Every invoice is checked by someone. Almost none of them are checked against all of it.
We start with invoices you have already paid.
One agreed period, one set of suppliers. We rebuild what each invoice should have been from the evidence behind it, and show you every line that does not reconcile. Nothing forward-looking is required to begin.
| What did not reconcile | How it happens | Exceptions |
|---|---|---|
| Billed rate above the approved rate card | An amendment took effect mid-period and the supplier’s billing system kept the prior rate | $71,400 |
| Overtime applied outside the agreed rule | Hours split across two cost centers, or premium applied where the contract did not allow it | $38,900 |
| Lines with no approved authority | A worker outside the assignment record, a duplicate rebill, an expense never approved | $34,600 |
| Hours with no approved timesheet behind them | Billed and paid, but the signed record supporting them was never produced | $28,100 |
Illustrative figures, not a customer result. We do not promise a recovery rate, and we never multiply one review into an annual number.
You receive the working papers, not a headline.
Everything below is written so your supplier’s account manager can follow the same arithmetic and either agree with it or show you where it is wrong.
- An invoice register — every line reviewed, with one disposition each: reconciled, exception, or routed to a personRegister
- A reproducible calculation per exception — the clause, the rate-card row, the timesheet, the invoice line, and the arithmetic between themEvidence
- A reconciliation — reconciled plus exceptions plus unresolved equals the invoiced total, with no double countingControl
- A written statement of limitations — what we could not test, and whyScope
- A supplier-ready pack — the evidence for each exception, in the form you would put in front of the supplierRecovery
If your billing reconciles, that is the finding, and it is worth having in writing. Acceptance of the work does not depend on us finding something.
Four people usually care, for different reasons.
Control, not just cost
Contingent labor is one of the largest categories paid with the least independent verification. This closes that gap without adding headcount.
Approve on evidence
Your team already checks these invoices. This gives them the contract, the rate card and the approved hours in the same view as the line.
The rate you negotiated
You agreed rates, tiers and overtime rules with every supplier. This shows whether the invoices actually followed them.
Bounded, and you keep every decision.
No systems access required
What AmountGuard does not do.
Start with one question about last year.
How much of what you paid your staffing suppliers can you show the evidence for?
