• Fact Gathering & Document Preparation

  Ä¢¹½tv's multidisciplinary teams have extensive construction litigation and expert testimony experience, including claims research, analysis and reporting, document preparation, and trial assistance.

• Schedule Delay Analysis

  Delays are common in construction — often the result of design changes, unforeseen conditions, inclement weather, part and component unavailability, labor resource issues, scoping errors, and unreliable scheduling. Ä¢¹½tv's schedule-delay experts provide extensive experience in the preparation and analysis of as-planned and as-built schedules, as well as other court-accepted methodologies to analyze the extent and cause of critical path delay. Our experts also review contemporaneous project records, independently assess previously documented project issues, and effectively present the results in reports and demonstrative exhibits.

• Damage & Quantum Analysis

  Determining the level and nature of damage, as well as associated expenses incurred during a construction project, takes a deep understanding of the engineering and construction process as well as damage and quantum expertise. Ä¢¹½tv consultants are familiar with a broad spectrum of claim pricing methodologies and have analyzed every aspect of cost impact, including direct and indirect costs, delay costs, overhead applications, time value of money, and consequential damages.

• Expert Testimony

  Ä¢¹½tv's consultants use a fact-based approach to claims analysis and preparation to provide independent, objective expert testimony, which has proven successful in a variety of our client's claim disputes and project assessments.

• Summary of Services

  For 50+ years, we've thrived on solving unstructured problems that require bespoke solutions. Some of our services include:

  Claims Analysis, Preparation, and Defense

  Our integrated team of professionals delivers continuous fact-finding to align challenges with cost and schedule overruns, which enables our clients to make informed business decisions. We provide support throughout the entire litigation lifecycle, from research and analysis to expert testimony at negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or trial.

  Time Extension, Delay, and Acceleration Analysis

  Leveraging experience in the preparation and analysis of as-planned and as-built schedules and other court-accepted delay methodologies, our schedule delay experts use the critical path method (CPM) to evaluate and resolve delay and acceleration claims. Our experts also use contemporaneous project records to independently assess challenges that occurred during the project and effectively present the results in reports and demonstrative exhibits.

  Productivity Loss, Disruption, and Inefficiency Analysis

  Lost labor productivity is often one of the more significant elements of damages in a construction dispute, while the calculation of lost labor productivity and inefficiencies is one of the most controversial. Both can lead to monetary losses. Our cost professionals use the contemporaneous project records to evaluate issues that impact labor productivity.

  Contract Termination Claims

  Our construction consultants can guide you through the termination process and assist in protecting your interests throughout the process. Whether the allegation is of nonpayment, nonperformance, insufficient staffing, code, rule or law violations, poor workmanship, or breach of contract, Ä¢¹½tv will review project records to determine the facts, prepare a rebuttal and assist in calculating costs associated with work performed, termination costs, overhead, and profit.

  Builders Risk and Insurance Claims

  Policyholders and insurance companies often retain Ä¢¹½tv to prepare expert reports for claims presentations or defense. We have served as testifying experts on many large insurance coverage litigations matters and assist our clients by analyzing business interruption impacts, and related costs, as well as performing maximum probable loss studies.

  Expert Testimony, Reports, and Trial Assistance

  Our independent expert witnesses leverage a combination of technical expertise, construction experience, and testimony experience to assist our clients during litigation. We also provide graphics, videos, and animations with interactive capabilities to assist with trials, arbitration, or mediation.
