Project cost assurance

With more and more oil & gas projects being tendered using open book contracts, there is a corresponding need for stricter cost control, eliminating excess waste and ensuring costs are appropriate and accurate.

Due to its unique risk based approach to auditing, Mazars is requested by clients at various stages of the project life cycle:

• Project inception; to ensure systems and processes are able to deliver accurate cost reporting when clients typically engage the supply chain on reimbursable contracts
• During construction; to establish accuracy of costs incurred to date and highlight operational failings that put project costs/operations/timelines at risk, and recommend corrective measures
• Project completion; to ensure final account settlements are based on accurate cost information and that project accounts are fully auditable
