In short

Independent review for the people who need a straight answer.

When significant capital, reputations or public trust depend on a schedule, an internal opinion is not enough. Boards, lenders and oversight bodies want independent evidence that the dates they are relying on are sound, and a CFO wants a straight answer before the next funding decision.

Our audits are thorough, objective and documented to a professional standard. We examine the schedule, the process that produces it, the people who maintain it and the controls that govern it. Then we report plainly on what can be relied on and what cannot, and what to do about it.

Questions, answered

What leaders ask us first.

Straight answers from the people who do the work. If your question is not here, ask us directly. A senior practitioner will reply.

Who usually commissions a schedule audit?

Owners, lenders, insurers, public agencies and boards, typically before a major funding decision or when confidence in reported progress has started to slip.

How do you keep audits independent?

We do not audit schedules we prepared, and we disclose any prior relationship with the parties involved before the engagement begins.

Can the audit stay confidential?

Yes. Scope, findings and distribution are controlled entirely by the party that commissions the audit.

What happens after the report?

Whatever you need. Some clients act on the findings themselves; others ask us to support the corrections and re-test, so the board sees the issues closed rather than just identified.
