Overview
The firm a public owner can call, and reach the principal.
We sit on the owner’s side of the table. Every number is defensible, every claim is tested, and every project is managed as if the record will be read aloud before a board.
Owner-side
We work for the public owner, not for the contractor and not for a large firm’s bench. Independent advice you can put in front of an oversight board.
Principal-led
You work directly with the firm’s principal and senior team. The people named on the proposal are the people who do the work.
On the record
CPM forensics, cost and schedule risk, and claims analysis that stand up to scrutiny, because they start from the project record and show their math.
