Question ID: 732420
Which industries tend to have companies with large, in terms of both
personnel and department sales, investment recovery departments?

This is an example answer I have found:
Electric Utility industry companies tend to have very large investment
recovery departments.

Here are some tips:
*investment recovery is also called asset recovery
*investment recovery departments are usually part of purchasing departments
*an electric utility company I know of with approx 1B in revenue and
approx 1K employees has approx 2 people in investment recovery
*an electric utility company I know of with approx 10B in revenue and
approx 25K employees has approx 18 people in investment recovery

Thanks for your question.


More than 100 large companies with substantial investment recovery
operations are members of the national Investment Recovery
Association:


http://www.invrecovery.org/


You may want to give this website a good looking-over, as there is a
fair amount of information and resources here regarding investment
recovery operations.


You can also see the list of member companies at their website:


http://www.southwesternassn.com/ira/ira-mbr-search-memonly.htm
Investment Recovery Association -- Member Companies
 


I've reproduced the list below, and added industry segments for many
of the companies.

As you can see, the largest single category of companies are those in
the power business -- mostly utilities, though there appear to be some
companies that service the power industry included as well.

The second largest category are the chemical and oil companies -- the
DuPont's and Chevron's of the world.

There are a few companies in each of the categories of Paper
Manufacturing, and Telecom companies, along with an assortment of
large manufacturers in various other industry segments like airlines
(Boeing) and food (Campbell's).

There are a fair number of public entities -- city governments, port
authorities, airports, and the like.


I trust that sort of breakout fully meets your needs. 

However, if you desire any additional information about the industries
making use of investment recovery, please let me know, and I'll be
pleased to research this further for you.

All the best,

Hello, your answer tells me about industries that tend to have
companies that are part of an association.  However, it does not tell
me about industries that tend to have large investment recovery
departments.

While I can see an indirect leap of assertions to reach the conclusion
conclusion that association members would have large departments, it
does not answer my question.

For example, what if an association has a particularly good way of
marketing to industry A but not to industry B?  And what if industry A
tends to have companies with small investment recovery departments
whereas industry B tends to have companies with large investment
recovery departments?
