The Three Hidden Benefits of Construction Audits
Even when construction projects finish on time and on budget, hidden risks in billing practices, contract compliance, and cost allocation can create significant financial exposure. Unlock the secrets to maximizing construction project value with strategic audits in this white paper.
Key Insights:
- Driving Visibility and Reducing Financial Risks: Proactively identify billing errors, contract compliance gaps, and fraudulent activities before they compound into major losses. Use “Mini-Max” controls and in-flight audits to prevent General Conditions misallocations and other cost overruns that create financial vulnerabilities.
- Reinforcing Structure Through Contract Management: Implement strategic contract optimization that addresses root causes of cost overruns rather than just symptoms. Address contract ambiguities and improve payment terms while using compliance reviews and contract monitoring to create accountability frameworks that prevent issues before they start.
- Building Bridges, Not Walls with Contractor Relationships: Build trust through transparent processes that reputable contractors welcome as competitive advantages. Leverage industry benchmarks and historical project data to accelerate contract negotiations with mutually beneficial terms and streamline billing guidelines for timely payments.
