Forensic Cost & Change Review

Forensic Cost & Change Review

Uncovering the detail behind the numbers

When cost positions become unclear, disputed or difficult to reconcile, a forensic review can provide the clarity needed to move forward. We carry out detailed examinations of project costs, variations, valuations and change events to identify discrepancies, quantify exposure and establish a clear financial picture. Our forensic reviews are methodical and evidence-based. We work through project records systematically — cross-referencing contract documents, correspondence, site records and financial data to build a comprehensive understanding of what has happened and what it means commercially. The output of our work is always clear and well-structured, whether it's supporting a claim, informing a negotiation or providing an independent assessment for a client board. We present complex financial information in a way that is accessible and actionable, ensuring that decision-makers have the insight they need.
Magero identified over £2m in cost discrepancies that had gone unnoticed. Their forensic review was thorough, precise and ultimately transformative for the project.
