Our Services

Construction projects are complex and costly. Our construction audit experts will give you assistance with minimising risks such as cost increases and delays. We offer audits that run parallel to the project, from planning all the way to signing off, analyse project processes and responsibilities, and perform forensic investigations in construction and real estate.

If there are suspicions of economic crime, we offer to clear them up comprehensively. Our services include analysing documents, IT forensic investigations, questioning staff and carrying out background research. The goal is to clarify the matter so that no gaps remain and to develop appropriate countermeasures.
