Apex Delta combines expertise in brand licensing royalty compliance audits, music royalties & licensing, and fintech. Our consultancy was born from the understanding that efficiencies can be created for even the most complex processes in highly specialized industries – or, to put it simply, we can make it better.
Contractual terms can often be difficult to analyze without extremely specialized knowledge, making it easy to stumble into non-compliance errors. In fact, most non-compliance is not the result of nefarious intent but rather simple human error and ineffective systems within the organization. But no matter the cause, the result of these mistakes is the same: exorbitant fees for unlicensed activities, interest, penalties, and eroding trust with licensing partners.
By the time a Licensor engages a firm to perform a compliance audit, it's too late. The key to preventing expensive and painful audits is to ensure accuracy up front and identify issues immediately, not after years of unlicensed activity.
Apex Delta focuses on compliance reviews of existing contracts, as well as the organizational processes that support them. By helping licensees self-identify unlicensed activity, course-correct, and develop systems and processes to minimize audit discoveries, Apex Delta can significantly reduce the likelihood of future non-compliance errors (and their inevitable expense.) Leveraging years of royalty and tech experience, Apex Delta also offers royalty services for licensees, processing income against contractual terms to ensure proper calculations and attributions.
Apex Delta saves time, money & hassle by future-proofing contract compliance processes and will likely find plenty of operational efficiencies along the way. So how can we help YOU make it better?
