Forensic Accounting and Damages Analysis

Construction disputes often involve complex financial questions tied to delays, disruptions, and changes. MBP helps clients quantify and explain those impacts with clear, defensible analysis. Our Disputes + Investigations team combines financial damages analysis and forensic investigation with real-world construction experience to support claims, disputes, and resolution efforts. 

What We Do

MBP provides analysis to evaluate the financial impact of disputes, including: 

  • Financial damages analysis  
  • Forensic accounting and fraud investigations 
  • Lost profits evaluation  
  • Cost and productivity impacts  
  • Extended overhead and project costs  
  • Requests for Equitable Adjustments (REAs) and claims support 

Our team evaluates both the technical drivers of project impacts and the resulting financial consequences, providing a clear and supportable understanding of project-related damages. 

Forensic Analysis

We review financial and project data to understand how costs were incurred and whether claims are supported. This includes: 

  • Review of project cost records and documentation  
  • Evaluation of cost allocation and financial data  
  • Identification of inconsistencies or irregularities  
  • Analysis of business interruption and economic loss  

These analyses help establish the financial foundation for evaluating claims, quantifying damages, and supporting dispute resolution. 

Integrated with Project Analysis

Financial impacts do not exist in isolation. MBP connects financial analysis with schedule delay and cost evaluation to provide a complete view of disputed project events.

Our multidisciplinary team integrates schedule, cost, and financial analysis to evaluate disputes from both technical and financial perspectives.

This integrated approach helps clients and legal teams understand both what happened and what it means financially.
