Case Study: Global Manufacturing & Services reduces overpayments and improves quality with apexanalytix

Global Manufacturing & Services Driving costs down and quality up through outsourced services and software

Global Manufacturing & Services, a global leader in machinery, rental, and logistics operating in 180 countries, was looking to reduce costs while maintaining strong payment controls. As part of this effort, the company downsized its accounts payable team and outsourced recovery audit work to **apexanalytix**, using support services and **firststrike®** software to help manage millions of payment transactions.

**apexanalytix** implemented recovery audit services, Vendor Risk Analysis, and firststrike® overpayment prevention software to identify errors, recover past overpayments, and prevent future ones. The company has prevented more than **$20 million** in overpayments to date, recovered **$4.3 million** in prior overpayments, and gained reporting and control insights to support its Six Sigma improvement initiatives.
