Fraud Prevention Tribe - the Exactech Blog page

If you are still investigating the same old frauds, year after year, then the entropy of what you are doing cannot be measured.

According to Wikipedia.org, Entropy is mathematically defined in two ways:

1. "as a relationship between heat flow into a system and the system's change in temperature, and

2. as the natural logarithm of the number of microstates of a system”

We regard fraud as a (negative) ‘heat flow’ in the system (organisation or company) that creates many ‘microstates’ (negative conditions) within the system.

At Exactech, we are creating a Tribe, an Anti Fraud Tribe or Fraud Prevention Tribe, where we are all happy to be in the kitchen where the ‘heat flow’ is – but no longer doing what is regarded as reactive or precautionary – but are focussing on the proactionary aspect of the ROI in changing the systems in play within organisations so that a better place, company, world and Tribe we live, work and play in can be created.

It has been proven that fraud prevention makes economical, viable and sustainable sense.

Part of this blog is to get the Tribe moving...
