Bovis investigated for alleged overbilling

Prosecutors are investigating contractor Bovis Lend Lease for allegedly overbilling for five projects the company worked on, including Citi Field, the Sept. 11 Memorial, demolition of the Deutsche Bank tower, the New York University Medical Center and a mall in Rego Park. A source told the Daily News that investigators are looking into Bovis allegedly inflating bills by putting in hours not worked or adding overtime that wasn’t justified. The investigators also want to know about the firing of Bovis employee Brian Aryai, a former U.S. Department of Treasury agent who was hired as a senior vice president of finance and controller at Bovis, whose job included conducting internal investigations of fraud.
