We offer a range of services, including project schedule preparation and analysis, forensic accounting, cost-to-complete estimates, construction delay cost analysis, and risk analysis & avoidance. These targeted measures are designed to ensure projects align with surety interests and remain on schedule and within budget.

Performance & Payment Bond Consulting

At JTE Claims Consultants, we provide specialized support for both performance and payment bond claims. Our team manages the full claim process, from pre-termination evaluations to project completion, adeptly addressing overpayments, scope changes, delays, and wrongful terminations etc. Through strategic settlement negotiations and precise risk assessments, we focus on optimizing decision-making processes and financial outcomes for our clients.

Builder Risk Insurance Claim Consulting

Our forensic analysis expertise allows us to effectively assess the merit and value of complex builder risk insurance claims. We provide sureties and insurers with critical insights into project status at the time of loss, determining if contractors were on schedule and which operations could proceed unaffected. By examining pre-loss schedules, site photos, daily logs, and other documentation, we establish realistic timelines and pinpoint delays caused by loss events. Our team of experts further supports this process with detailed delay analysis, cause and origin reporting, and cost assessments.
