New York Racing Association World Trade Center Clean-Up Waste Disposal Elevators Plumbing Asbestos Abatement

Various government initiated anti-corruption efforts in New York City have given rise to the need for independent private monitors to oversee and report back about the ongoing actions of private companies operating in key industries. In New York City and elsewhere, government agencies rely on the Code of Ethics of the International Association of Independent Private Sector Inspectors General (IAISPIG), a Code that was developed by a working group led by Getnick & Getnick. Our managing partner currently chairs the IAIPSIG. We have undertaken numerous such independent monitoring engagements for New York City agencies during the past six years.

In 2001, for example, we were appointed by the New York City administration as the Project Integrity Compliance Monitor for one of the four construction companies responsible for the World Trade Center disaster site clean-up, an engagement in which we were tasked with the prevention and detection of any fraudulent, wasteful, and/or abusive practices by the construction company and its more than thirty subcontractors and suppliers.
