Incentive Compliance & Recovery
Protecting Public Funds,
One Incentive at a Time.
Through a collaborative process, we help state and local governments manage the complex layers of economic incentive packages — verifying compliance, monitoring commitments, and ensuring that only earned benefits are ever paid.
Trusted by state and local governments to protect public funds
When companies do what they promise, a return on investment is realized. When they don't, taxpayers absorb the loss. We make sure governments know the difference.
The Challenge
Incentive packages are complex. Non-compliance often goes undetected.
Layers of Complexity
Modern incentive packages involve multiple agencies, overlapping commitments and multi-year performance windows. Without dedicated oversight, critical milestones slip through the cracks.
Non-Compliance Goes Undetected
Most governments lack the internal capacity to systematically track every commitment made by every incentive recipient. Gaps in monitoring mean unearned benefits are routinely paid.
Taxpayers Bear the Cost
When incentive recipients fail to deliver — on jobs, investment or other benchmarks — the public absorbs the loss. General funds shrink. Community priorities go unfunded.
Our Services
A structured approach to incentive accountability.
Incentive Monitoring
We establish systematic tracking of every commitment in an incentive agreement — jobs created, capital invested, wage thresholds, timelines, and more. Nothing falls through the cracks.

Our team conducts rigorous, evidence-based verification of recipient performance against agreed benchmarks. We document findings clearly and provide governments with defensible records.

When non-compliance is confirmed, we guide governments through the recapture process — calculating clawback amounts, preparing documentation, and supporting negotiations with recipients.
