In disputes
Technical expertise for complex decisions
Founded in 2005, Hect is a Brazilian consultancy specialized in environments that demand technical analysis, an integrated view and well-founded decisions. Over more than two decades, we have taken part in more than 1,000 national and international projects, carried out across different sectors and business contexts.
Our work combines expertise in engineering, contract management, project management, accounting, economics, environment, governance, risk and compliance. This multidisciplinary background makes it possible to understand complex issues from different perspectives, connecting technical, contractual, financial, operational and regulatory aspects.
Rather than examining isolated pieces of information, we seek to organize facts, documents, data and criteria clearly. The aim is to provide consistent references for managers, technical teams, legal departments, investors and others responsible for decisions involving projects, contracts, companies or disputes.
Our history
Hect’s history has been built on projects of different sizes and sectors, including energy, mining and steel, infrastructure, oil and gas, sanitation, agribusiness, civil construction, industrial complexes and equipment. This experience allows us to understand the specific challenges of each undertaking and the relationships between planning, execution, contracts, costs, risks and results.
Along the way, we have expanded our work to bring together disciplines that often need to be analyzed jointly. Issues related to schedule, cost and scope may involve contractual obligations, accounting effects, economic impacts, environmental aspects, internal controls and decision-making processes. That is why we have built teams and services capable of examining these interfaces in an integrated way.
Our work on national and international projects also broadens our ability to deal with different contracting models, corporate structures, regulatory environments and forms of dispute resolution. Each engagement is carried out according to the context, the information available and the questions that need to be answered.
Recognition and Market
Leadership
Hect stands out in the market for its work in engineering disputes, an area in which it is recognized as a leader, and also ranks among the leading consultancies in other technical, economic, financial, environmental, contractual and governance fields.
In addition to its leadership in Construction & Engineering, Hect is ranked among the leading firms and consultancies in Accounting & Finance, Compliance, Economics & Financial Valuation, Risk Management & Crisis Management, Environmental, Engineering & Construction Contract Management, Valuation and Real Estate Regularisation. This positioning reflects its ability to work on complex matters that require integration between engineering, contracts, costs, finance, risk, environment and governance.
Hect’s leaders are also internationally recognized by the Lexology Index among construction dispute experts. This recognition is associated with the experience accumulated in highly complex technical and contractual disputes.
These external references complement the track record built through the projects, the technical work and the multidisciplinary practice developed throughout the company’s history.
Quality, ethics and
integrity
Hect’s Management System is certified by SGS in accordance with the ABNT NBR ISO 9001:2015 standard. The certified scope covers consulting services in contract engineering and in governance, risk and compliance. The system is based on customer focus, compliance with applicable standards, continuous process improvement and employee participation in the company’s objectives.
Hect also maintains a Compliance and Integrity Program integrated into its activities, recognized by Brazil’s Office of the Comptroller General (CGU) with the Pro-Ethics Company Seal for adopting integrity practices, preventing corruption and promoting social and environmental responsibility.
These guidelines translate into concrete day-to-day practices, such as a code of conduct, whistleblowing channels, regular training and ongoing evaluation of internal processes. In this way, Hect seeks to ensure that its values are present at every stage of its work, from planning to the final delivery of each project.
Quality and integrity are treated as benchmarks for how work is carried out, for relationships with clients and partners, and for how information is analyzed, documented and presented.

How we work
Every engagement starts from an understanding of the context, the objectives and the questions that need to be clarified. Based on these references, we define the disciplines required, the information to be analyzed and the most suitable structure for carrying out the work.
Our work brings together professionals from different fields to examine the interfaces between engineering, contracts, planning, costs, accounting, economics, environment, governance and risk. This integration avoids fragmented analyses and allows the relevant aspects to be considered together.
Results are presented in clear language, indicating the applicable information, assumptions, criteria and qualifications. In this way, technically complex content becomes more accessible to decision-makers, without losing depth, accuracy or traceability.
Experience in complex disputes
Hect is recognized for its work as an expert witness, technical advisor and in support of contractual discussions. Since 2019, it has been ranked as a leader in engineering practices related to dispute support, working on court proceedings and arbitrations in Brazil and abroad.
Our portfolio of ongoing disputes exceeds R$ 40 billion. This experience allows us to bring to the analysis of contracts and projects a practical understanding of the technical, documentary, contractual and financial factors that influence complex disputes.
The work is based on the questions actually raised and the evidence available. Contracts, designs, schedules, site records, correspondence, financial statements, calculations and data are examined in an integrated way, maintaining a clear link between facts, the criteria used and technical conclusions.
