Bill Audit

What is a Utility Bill Audit?

A utility bill audit is the process of reviewing a company’s utility invoices to uncover billing errors. This work can be conducted by an in-house team, or by hiring a utility bill audit company. These audits are focused solely on errors in the invoices, everything from incorrect late fees, not opening/closing accounts on time, or being billed for the wrong rate plan. Audits can be conducted on any utility invoice, including natural gas, electric, water/sewer, or waste.

Uncover Costly Utility Billing Errors

Most commercial businesses and non-profits are being overcharged via billing errors that can cost them thousands of dollars. It is very important for them to audit all their utilities for these overages, claim any and all rebates, and maintain the lowest rate possible moving forward. To accomplish this, companies and nonprofits should have a professional audit team at hand to ensure maximal savings.

Negotiate with Utilities to Generate Refunds or Credits

Errors uncovered during utility bill audits should be brought to the attention of utility providers, who will generally issue a refund for overcharges overpaid, or a credit toward future bills. It’s important to track and document the errors and resolutions internally to maintain a record of negotiations with the utility company. No billing error is ‘too old’ to seek a refund or credit, especially if that error costs a company money.
