Business-to-business recovery

Move an overdue Detroit commercial account toward resolution.

DMC serves Detroit and nearby metro communities, including Dearborn, Southfield, and Livonia. Our nationwide recovery capability also supports accounts where a local receiving facility and the customer’s payment office operate in different states.

Prepare the account file

What helps us review a Detroit area account.

These are examples of records that can help establish a commercial balance. Share what you have; DMC will review the account before recommending a recovery path.

Automotive supply and production invoices

Provide purchase orders, production releases, delivery confirmations, inspection records, and invoices. Match customer deductions, returned parts, and agreed credits to the original shipments. Identify the purchasing company separately from the plant or end customer that received the goods.

Freight and commercial project balances

Gather the service agreement, rate confirmation or approved scope, proof of delivery or completion, and records supporting additional charges. Include customer objections and payment promises. Reconcile partial payments so DMC can review the actual remaining obligation.

Commercial recovery services

The right next step for each account.

Collection strategy should reflect the documentation, age, balance, debtor history, and likelihood of recovery—not a one-size-fits-all script.

01

Commercial account recovery

Persistent, professional outreach for past-due B2B invoices, guided by the account history, documentation, and your business goals.

02

Demand and pre-litigation support

Formal demands and clearly documented escalation designed to establish urgency and create a path toward resolution.

03

Lien filings and notices

Coordination of applicable lien-related filings, notices, deadlines, and authorized enforcement activity when the facts support it.

04

Legal coordination

When ordinary collection efforts are not enough, DMC can coordinate evaluation by qualified legal professionals. DMC does not provide legal advice.
