Fraud investigation for construction and infrastructure

Progress claims, contract amendments and payments need to reflect what was agreed and delivered. Baruch investigates documents, approvals, suppliers and financial flows when discrepancies arise, gathering evidence to support contract review, clarify responsibilities and assess possible measures concerning money that may have been diverted.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

From the situation to investigation deliverables.

See which facts need clarification, the relevant services and the deliverable associated with each one.

SITUATION 01

Progress claims and charges exceeding completed work

Approved progress claims include work without evidence of completion and materials without corresponding delivery. Amendments increase payments to the same contractor, who may be connected to an approver. The company needs to compare contracts, site records and approvals, coordinating the investigation with technical verification of the work.

SITUATION 02

Transfers among companies and owners in question

Project funds move through subcontractors and third-party accounts without corresponding services in available records. Some companies share owners or addresses. The team needs to reconstruct flows, verify relationships and identify asset information that may support action concerning diverted money.
