Many accounting and consulting firms offer royalty audits and licensing-related advisory services as part of broader practice areas. Global Royalty Audits, Inc. (“GRA”) differs in that it is a firm of dedicated royalty audit experts, focused exclusively on royalty audits, royalty dispute resolution, and license consulting. This exclusive focus allows GRA to provide a level of specialization and depth that is not typically available from firms for whom royalty auditing represents only a limited component of their overall practice.
The principals of GRA, Mike Swan and Glenn Tautrims, together bring more than thirty years of experience performing hundreds of royalty audits and license compliance engagements worldwide. As royalty audit experts, their work spans a wide range of industries and jurisdictions, including engagements throughout North and Central America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. This breadth of experience enables GRA to address complex licensing arrangements, interpret detailed royalty provisions, and resolve issues involving royalty reporting, deductions, and contractual compliance.
A distinguishing feature of GRA’s approach is that each engagement is managed on-site by at least one of its principals, ensuring that clients work directly with senior royalty audit experts throughout the engagement. Rather than delegating primary responsibility to junior personnel, GRA ensures that experienced professionals with extensive hands-on royalty audit expertise are involved in planning, execution, and communication. This approach promotes consistency in interpretation, efficient issue resolution, and accountability at every stage of the process.
By combining focused specialization with direct principal involvement, GRA delivers a disciplined, experience-driven approach to royalty audits, royalty dispute resolution, and license consulting. Clients benefit from continuity, senior-level oversight, and practical insights from royalty audit experts whose practice is devoted entirely to protecting and maximizing licensing revenue.
