When failures and accidents occur, it is critical to understand why. It is vital for loss recovery and for failure avoidance in the future.

Natural disasters, catastrophic failures, accidental damage – businesses and individuals alike carry insurance to hedge against the risk of these unpleasant eventualities. Drawing on our long history of engineering and scientific investigation, testing, analysis, and repair, CTLGroup provides insurance support along with a wide array of technical capabilities that clients need to mitigate risk or recover from a loss event.
CTLGroup has provided expert solutions for loss avoidance and recovery to a variety of stakeholders in the Insurance sector, including:
CTLGroup performs condition assessments following loss events to define the nature, extent, and reparability of damage. We provide rapid response engineering services to help our clients triage issues following catastrophic events. We conduct investigations to determine the root cause of failures, collapses, and accidents. We assess vulnerabilities in existing structures and systems so clients can make informed insurance decisions and reduce risk. Our team has worked on all nature of structures and infrastructure in the built environment.
CTLGroup’s investigation services include non-destructive evaluation and field testing capabilities so our engineers and scientists can look deeper into potential vulnerabilities or damage mechanisms. We also maintain the latest in computational analysis software so we can model and simulate extreme events and test failure theories. Our in-house material, chemical, structural, and mechanical testing laboratories allow us to evaluate materials, components, and products to identify constituents, qualify performance, replicate damage, and evaluate ways to avoid failures.
Altogether, CTLGroup provides a one-stop resource for technical consulting and laboratory testing expertise to our Insurance sector clients.
