Question 01
"How much did we actually move?"
A contractor claimed 0 m³. The consultant certified 0 m³. The gap sits on someone's balance sheet until an independent number exists.

Why clients pay for this
Three questions that cost real money.
We produce the record that answers each, in writing, not in a meeting.
Question 02
"Where were we on the 15th?"
A lender will not release the next draw without documentation. A 0-day delay on a $0M draw is a six-figure financing cost for the developer.
0-day draw delay per gapQuestion 03
"Is that defect new, or was it there last month?"
Without a dated, independent site record, a contractor-versus-consultant dispute has no anchor. Whoever keeps the best records wins the argument.
Dispute defense cost: unlimited

Illustrative example
A representative SITE INTEL engagement.
The figures below illustrate how a Volume Verification engagement resolves a typical earthwork quantity dispute.
Illustrative Example
Quantity dispute · Earthworks
Explore Volume Verification
A $190,000 payment exposure, resolved in 48 hours.
A general contractor on a residential subdivision claimed to have placed 15,000 m³ of structural fill. The owner's representative estimated closer to 10,000 m³. Without an independent reference, a five-figure exposure was sitting unresolved on the monthly payment certificate.
A single SITE INTEL flight captured the placed volume using RTK direct georeferencing, cross-checked against the site's reference surface. The verified quantity landed at 13,800 m³ ± 2%. The contractor revised down by 1,200 m³. The owner revised up by 3,800 m³. At the unit rate of $50/m³, the adjustment resolved roughly $190,000 in exposed payment on the owner's side and $60,000 on the contractor's side within the same week the flight was completed.
