The Problem

Catch OCG Issues Before Billing

Outside Counsel Guidelines set client-specific rules for rates, staffing, narratives, and expenses. Left inside documents, they must be manually reapplied every matter — and issues caught late mean avoidable rework.

01

OCG Documents

Client-specific requirements arrive as lengthy documents.

02

Manual Interpretation

Teams repeatedly interpret and apply the same requirements by hand.

03

Late Issue Discovery

Requirements are checked late in the billing process.

04

Rework & Resubmission

Late discovery can create avoidable billing rework.

How It Works

Review Rules Before They Go Live

Extract billing requirements from client guidelines, review them with the appropriate team, and activate only approved rules.

What Changes

From Reactive Review to Earlier Compliance Control

The same team, the same clients — but compliance moves from after-the-fact cleanup to earlier operational control.

Traditional Approach

  • OCG requirements remain inside documents.
  • Teams repeatedly interpret client requirements.
  • Exceptions may be identified late in the billing process.
  • Billing teams spend additional time investigating and correcting issues.

With OCG Compliance

  • Requirements become reviewed operational rules.
  • Billing activity can be checked earlier.
  • Exceptions are surfaced with supporting context.
  • The appropriate owner reviews and resolves the issue.
  • Approved decisions remain traceable.
