Large school districts employ tens of thousands of people, spend billions of dollars annually, issue millions of checks, contract with thousands of vendors, and possess thousands of physical assets. Hand in hand with such size come unique opportunities for fraud. Suspicious patterns that would immediately draw attention in small to mid-sized school districts can pass undetected among the the tens of millions of pieces of data that large agencies manage.
The recording, analysis, and investigation of routine data can lead to the discovery of fraud, waste, or questionable business practices. Tested algorithms can uncover fraudulent patterns in payments, vendor data, credit card statements, and inventory reports. The Vander Weele Group examines large data sets such as payrolls, credit card expenditures, workers' compensation, procurement, construction expenditures, and student loans to identify indicators of fraud. We investigate anomalies or produce leads for your investigative team. Our innovative methodologies provide powerful insights into integrity matters that challenge your organization. |
