Train & Transition

We build your team's A/R effectiveness.
Through our unique Train & Transition engagement, The Collection Dept. works side-by-side with your team leveraging best practices to build better processes and policies. We’ll equip and empower your team to manage customer relationships, speed up cash flow, and utilize your A/R systems to the fullest. And we’ll leave you with valuable tools and reports that provide visibility, foster accountability and drive success.

Liquidation & Recovery

We maximize recovery.

For CROs, turnaround professionals, PE firms, and lenders: we go after distressed A/R on a reasonable success fee — so more of every recovered dollar stays with creditors and stakeholders. Senior practitioners, fast ramp, real-time data. No call center, no scripts.

Best for:
  • Lenders, CROs, attorneys and turnaround pros who want to outsource liquidation of AR to a competent team that will get right to work
  • Bankruptcies or liquidations where maximum recovery is required
  • Turnarounds/restructures that require clean-up on neglected AR
  • Leaders who want quick feedback on recovery expectations
Fee model:
  • Reasonable success fee -- Scope-dependent

Trust a Partner That Keeps Your Data Where It Belongs: With You

Exporting your A/R data to a third-party system robs you of control, slows you down, and puts you at risk for security breaches and data loss. Rather than force you into another platform, The Collection Dept. works within your system, so you protect your data, maintain your flexibility, and keep vital information at your fingertips.
