Our purpose is to prevent trouble before it starts.  In the United States, Monitoring and IPSIG (Independent Private Sector Inspector General) engagements are usually instituted as part of a resolution with regulators or prosecutors. More and more companies however are realizing that voluntarily having a monitor in place, particularly in troubled industries, can be a competitive advantage and sends an important positive message to employees, customers, shareholders and others. Our members have been leaders in this field from their inception and have had many appointments in a wide range of industries. We have substantial experience of monitoring major construction projects for owners, tenants, regulators and construction companies.  Compliance, often associated with Monitoring engagements, is an independent service. We can write or audit programs, help implement them and work with in-house resources to follow up effectively on allegations and issues.
