Forensic Analysis

Once issues escalate to construction or environmental disputes, a unique skill set is required for the complex process of analyzing project impacts, which includes isolating project failures, establishing cause-and-effect linkage, documenting root cause, and quantifying damages. The process of unraveling the complexity of capital project disputes and resultant environmental issues requires a detailed understanding of the capital project life cycle; experience in a contract claims environment; and a tested strategy to identify appropriate analytical techniques, identify project failures, and focus substantiation efforts.

We use an efficient, targeted strategy for diligent substantiation research using project documents, data, and witness interviews to deliver comprehensive analysis and dispute resolution assistance. Building on the extensive experience and technical expertise of our construction and environmental experts, we analyze the cause-and-effect relationship of disputes using a three-phase analytical approach:

Liability assessment
Schedule delay analysis
Damage quantification
