Forensics

Overview

Find where money is leaking and where controls are weak. Beacon analyses high-volume transaction data to surface duplicate spend, coding inconsistencies, non-PO risk, unusual supplier patterns, and recoverable opportunities.

What you get

• ✓A prioritised control-risk register with estimated value and effort
• ✓Supplier and category outlier analysis (including repeat/fragmented payments)
• ✓Non-PO and process-compliance breakdown (what's bypassing controls)
• ✓A short list of "fix first" recommendations and workflow changes
• ✓A dashboard view for ongoing monitoring (optional)

How it works

1. 1Ingest finance exports (and where available: procurement + contracts data)
2. 2Standardise, map and de-duplicate; run anomaly and pattern checks
3. 3Produce findings pack + dashboard excerpt + actions for control owners

Typical outputs

• •Executive summary (1 page) + findings log
• •Spend by source / category / site breakdown
• •Exceptions list (flagged transactions) with rationale and evidence trail
