We're pleased with the results we've been able to achieve for our clients –– manufacturers, retail and service companies, municipal and state governments, school districts and other organizations — and we're flattered by the things they've said about us:
"We were impressed when Cost Control
Associates uncovered $13,000 in refunds for
our County, but when their program discovered
over $112,400 in additional annual cost
savings, we were delighted."
Merced County, California (click here to see case study)
"While the savings proved to be significant,
the time saved by our staff in the effort that
would have been expended researching
these savings were equally important to our
overall operations."
Major Hospital (click here to see case study)
"We were very impressed when
Cost Control Associates uncovered
$43,000 in annual cost savings for
our company. The fact that the
review is no-risk as fees are based
on findings, and certainly painless
on our part, makes their service a
win-win situation."
Economos Properties (click here to see case study)
"With the cut backs we have seen in state
and county funding, CCA’s review came
along at a perfect time. The almost
$23,000 in annual savings was much
needed and is truly appreciated."
St Catherines Center for Children (click here to see case study)
"It took seven years. The utility argued
against the refund claim and then just
ignored it. When The Public Service
Commission (PSC) was called in, the
utility offered to settle for less than 50%
of the final refund total. Patience and
persistence eventually paid off. Total
refunds collected on the street light
review were over $232,000."
Town of Orangetown, NY (click here to see case study)
"Due to our previous efforts to
uncover all possible savings, we weren't
expecting Cost Control Associates'
review to be very productive. When their
audit uncovered over $22,000 in total
refunds and annual savings, we were
very grateful."
Scott County, Iowa (click here to see case study)
"Cost Control Associates uncovered
$43,427 in refunds for our County, and
over $65,200 in additional annual cost
savings. We took great pleasure in
knowing that the savings they produced
saved a position in our office that would
have otherwise been eliminated."
Brevard County, Florida (click here to see case study)
"We were quite pleased with the work
that Cost Control Associates did for us.
The almost $20,000 in refunds from our
telecom providers was very helpful, and
the over $37,000 in annual savings in our
combined energy and telecom costs helps
tremendously with our future
budgeting."

"It has been most comforting and
reassuring to know that we have objective,
responsive and highly technical expertise
to call on for assistance in navigating
through the complexities of ever evolving
data and telecom innovations. CCA
continues to be a
valued business
partner."

"We liked the idea that Cost Control
Associates, Inc. would do Energy Cost
Recovery and Reduction™ analysis for
the City on a
contingency basis. Street
lighting seemed like a
good place to
start and now Portage will save over
$40,000 during the next three years."
City of Portage (click here to see case study)
"We were very impressed that CCA's
Energy Cost Recovery and Reduction™
Program provided substantial energy cost
savings in our stores, particularly in light of
the fact that our current energy bill payer
had assured us that they were providing a
constant close review of our rates and
overall costs."
Big Box Retailer (click here to see case study)
"
Because Cleveland's current electric service is
provided by two separate utility companies
(both overlapping and in some cases, utilizing
the same infrastructure) we knew that the
process of reviewing bills might be difficult. The
$627,000 in refunds and annual cost savings that
CCA's review produced shows they were up to
the challenge."
Cleveland Energy (click here to see case study)
"CCA's expertise and attention to detail in the
fields they evaluate are unmatched. Even after we
renegotiated our contract with our cell phone
provider and were satisfied with the savings we
realized, CCA was able to negotiate another
$42,000 in savings!"
DA Collins (click here to see case study)
"While we were pleased with the savings
that Cost Control Associates found for us,
we were most pleased to learn that we
were not overpaying by a

are billing us correctly."
Jackson County (click here to see case study)
"CCA put a
lot of time and effort into
their review for us and while we were
disappointed that there were no refunds
or savings, it was very reassuring to
confirm that our costs and inventory
are right on the money."
City of Newark, Ohio (click here to see case study)
"We were pleased with the work that
Cost Control Associates did. While their

properly billed, the $4,300 in refunds
and cost savings is appreciated!"

Michael Johnson, Solano County Administrator (click here to see case study)

"Thank you Cost Control Associates for getting the refund from our telecom carrier that we had spent the last 4 months trying to get.

Glens Falls Housing Authority (click here to see case study)

Major Railroad (click here to see case study)
"Cost Control Associates showed us that a one-size fits all reverse auction process does not always produce the best results. In the end, we abandoned the reverse auction results and used Cost Control Associates' RFP process more than tripling the savings the reverse auction process had produced."
Major University (click here to see case study)

Golub Corporation (Price Chopper Supermarkets)

City of Cleveland (click here to see case study)
"Cost Control Associates’ review of Finch,
Paper’s 154 cellular phones secured more
than $71,000 in savings and a credit in
excess of $2,000. Our experience with them
was, and continues to be, a positive one as
we intend on using them in future cost
savings measures."
Finch Papaer, LLC. (click here to see case study)
