Use cases
A whistleblower hotline report or another internal trigger demands a thorough, quality investigation at the speed of business. What happens next depends on how you respond. Our AI-native approach helps quickly shape and execute investigative strategy, develop remediation plans, and tailor responses to specific threats—with greater speed and fewer disruptions to day-to-day operations. The goal: documented findings and a defensible, pragmatic approach.
An SEC investigation, DOJ probe, or regulatory enforcement action triggers immediate obligations: preservation, collection, production. From subpoenas and document requests to government monitorships, responding effectively requires not only managing vast amounts of data across jurisdictions, but also assessing controls, reviewing conduct and identifying key risks. We help uncover critical facts, audit processes, and produce responsive materials under strict chain-of-custody protocols—so you can meet requirements, demonstrate cooperation, and strengthen compliance.
Who are all your third parties? Do you know who's acting on your behalf? Growth brings new intermediaries, sales agents, resellers, and consultants—and 79% of US anti-bribery settlements involve third parties. We help identify potential high-risk third parties and activities before they impact the business—so you can mitigate risk, build trust, and safeguard integrity.
DCAA and DCMA audits require demonstrating compliance with FAR, DFARS, and Uniform Guidance across cost models and indirect rates. We help identify risks, close gaps, and prepare for audits with documentation support—so you can stay compliant with minimal disruption to operations.
Export and trade compliance risks can arise across operations, supply chains, and strategic transactions- including mergers and acquisitions (M&A). M&A due diligence may uncover gaps in export controls, sanctions compliance, and broader trade practices, along with potential successor liability. We help assess trade compliance frameworks, conduct operational diligence, and support Day One readiness and post-close integration- so you can manage regulatory risks and maintain compliance continuity across global operations.
Preventing and detecting financial crime—fraud, money laundering, sanctions violations—is one of the greatest challenges financial institutions face. The impact goes beyond monetary losses to reputation, relationships, and regulatory censure. We help investigate, implement an integrated financial crime risk approach, and support compliant operations—so you can move forward with purpose.
Building and executing complex, high-volume claims programs requires efficiency, transparency, and fairness often under significant scrutiny. Key functions include fraud detection, claimant communications, and appeals. We help design and execute programs with AI-driven analytics and documented controls—so you can provide timely compensation to claimants while maintaining public trust and credibility.
An enforcement action creates a critical inflection point. Regulators expect root cause analysis, credible remediation, and evidence the organization can be trusted going forward. We help conduct focused investigations, design corrective measures, and transform the compliance program—so you can address past issues and position the organization to lead in a complex regulatory environment.
