The cost of opacity

Most in-house teams don't know whether they're paying market rates. Outside counsel rates vary wildly. Billing codes differ by firm. Contract terms are scattered. The result: spend drifts upward quietly.

A single redundant vendor relationship or inflated hourly rate can cost six figures annually. Our audit finds these leaks systematically—and our optimization service plugs them.

[ TYPICAL LEAKAGE SOURCES ]
  • ↑ Rates above Canadian market median
  • ↑ Unused retainer fees not reclaimed
  • ↑ Duplicate vendor services undetected
  • ↑ Out-of-scope billing not flagged
  • ↑ Missing alternative fee arrangements
