An Independent Private Sector Inspector General ("IPSIG") is an independent private sector firm with legal, audit, investigative and loss prevention skills, employed by an organization or government entity, either voluntarily or by compulsory process, seeking to attain compliance with relevant laws and regulations. IPSIGs also aid organizations in their efforts to deter uncover and report unethical and illegal conduct by, within and against the entity. IPSIGs are usually selected by and report to government entities with the organization responsible for the costs and expenses.

Daylight’s professionals have worked within the guidelines of the Code of Ethics of the International Association of Independent Private Sector Inspector General and have diverse and highly relevant experience including former federal and state prosecutors, federal and local law enforcement personnel, forensic accountants, certified public accountants, compliance officers and forensic technology professionals.
