Construction Audits:  Solutions and Results

Our clients pay only for solutions and actual results.  This has been our core focus since our company was founded back in 1996 and we wouldn’t have it any other way.  Further, we provide unmatched levels of service, coupled with the utilization of our proprietary methodologies developed over the years, on all of our Construction Audit engagements, thereby affording you the best results possible, as well as the solutions to your problems.

Our Construction Audits, on average, result in 1% to 2% savings of your total construction project costs.  Additionally, our Construction Audits provide you guidance by outlining the various areas of exposure you may encounter on your next construction project.  This gives you the foresight and opportunity to address those issues on the front-end next time around.  The bottom line however, is that we thoroughly review every page of your contract and identify all opportunities for recoveries, whatever they may be.  We leave no stone unturned.

Because we offer contingency-based fees, you will always receive value from our audit.  At the very least, you will have the assurance that you have paid exactly what you should have paid for your construction project.

Construction Audit Solutions

Our Construction Audit experts bring vast experience to you in an effort to help in your Construction Audit needs through a variety of solutions tailored to meet the requirements of the various types of construction contracts.  Our process starts with a thorough review of every page of every document to ensure all opportunities for recovery are addressed.
