Overview

If your business has multiple locations or does commerce in multiple municipalities, you know that there’s rarely any real congruency between how the same systems function in different cities. This lack of standardization can make it extremely difficult to do business seamlessly between multiple cities or towns. It also makes it harder to notice when a municipality makes a mistake that could potentially cost your organization.

Once our team receives an initial data set comprised of invoices, and site-specific use information, we then take over the process entirely. Out first step is to communicate with the municipal provider(s) to obtain historical usage data so we have a baseline to analyze.

In addition to the application of proprietary knowledge and methods, Util kicks off a thorough and detailed audit process, which includes but is not limited to:

• An analysis to identify whether each account was on the most appropriate rate for specific water use.
• A review of all applicable aspects of the taxation of water and sewer charges including state and local sales tax, gross receipts tax, utility tax, and water tax.
• An investigation of industry-specific and use-specific programs such as cooling tower credits, diverted water or process-use type programs.
