Description Of Business And Basis Of Presentation [Abstract]
Description Of Business And Basis Of Presentation	1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Navigant Consulting, Inc. (“Navigant,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) (NYSE: NCI) is a specialized, global professional services firm that helps clients take control of their future. With a focus on markets and clients facing transformational change and significant regulatory or legal pressures, Navigant primarily serves clients in the healthcare, energy and financial services industries. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim reporting and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The information contained herein includes all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments except where indicated, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the enti re year ending December 31, 2016 . These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 1 6, 2016 (201 5 Form 10-K). During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we renamed two of our business segments. The Disputes, Investigations & Economics segment was renamed “Disputes, Forensics & Legal Technology,” and the Financial, Risk & Compliance segment was renamed “Financial Services Advisory and Compliance.” Other than the changes to the names of these segments, the characteristics of the business segments remain unchanged. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and may affect future results of operations and cash flows. We have evaluated events and transactions occurring after the balance sheet date and prior to the date of the filing of this report.

Acquisitions [Abstract]
Acquisitions	2 . ACQUISITIONS 2015 Acquisitions On December 31, 2015 , we acquired McKinnis Consulting Services, LLC (McKinnis) to further expand our healthcare business. McKinnis specializes in providing revenue cycle assessment, strategy and optimization assistance for healthcare providers. The acquisition included approximately 70 professionals and was integrated into our Healthcare segment. We paid $45.7 million at closing, including $42.7 million in cash (net of cash acquired) and $3.0 million (or 176,758 shares) in our common stock. The purchase agreement also provides for a deferred contingent acquisition payment to the selling members of McKinnis in an amount up to $10.0 million based on the business achieving certain performance targets over the one -year period ending December 31, 2016. We estimated the fair value of the deferred contingent consideration on the closing date to be $8.3 million which was recorded in other non-current liabilities at net present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. As part of our preliminary purchase price allocation, we recorded $13.0 million in identifiable intangible assets, $45.5 million in goodwill and other net assets of $1.0 million. Terms of the purchase agreement also include a provision for a working capital adjustment to be calculated within 90 days of the closing, which include s a $5.5 million payment to the selling members for undistributed cash held in the business as of the closing. Th e $5.5 million payment was made during the first quarter 2016. We are still in the process of finalizing our purchase price allocation and the assumptions used to determine the fair value of the intangible assets and deferred contingent consideration. To the extent that adjustments relate to facts and circumstances as of the closing date, the net impact will be recorded to goodwill for a period not exceeding one year. On February 23, 2015 , we acquired RevenueMed, Inc. (RevenueMed) to expand our business process management service capabilities within our healthcare segment. RevenueMed specializes in providing coding, revenue cycle management, and business process management services to healthcare providers. This acquisition included approximately 1,500 professionals primarily located in India and was integrated into the Technology, Data & Process business within our Healthcare segment. We paid $21.3 million in cash (net of cash acquired) at closing. The purchase agreement provided for a deferred contingent acquisition payment to the selling stockholders of RevenueMed in an amount up to $4.0 million based on the business achieving certain performance targets over the period beginning January 1, 2015 and ending June 30, 2015 . We estimated the fair value of the deferred contingent consideration on the closing date to be $3.8 million which was recorded in other current liabilities at net present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Based on the acquired business’ operating results during the performance period, the maximum earned amount was achieved, and on October 1, 2015 , a $4.0 million cash payment was made to settle the contingent acquisition liability. As part of our purchase price allocation, we recorded $7.3 million in identifiable intangible assets, $14.4 million in goodwill, $1.4 million of internally developed software and other n et assets of $2.6 million. Other net assets included a liability for uncertain tax positions of $ 1.3 million, and based on the indemnification terms of the purchase agreement, which entitles us to indemnification if tax is due, an offsetting receivable from RevenueMed was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets. See Note 11 – Fair Value for additional information regarding deferred contingent consideration fair value adjustments. Pro Forma Information The following supplemental unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared as if our 2016 and 201 5 acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 201 5 .

The key assumptions included: internal projections completed during our second quarter 2015 forecasting process; profit margin improvement generally consistent with our longer-term historical performance; assumptions regarding contingent revenue; revenue growth rates consistent with our longer-term historical performance also considering our near term investment plans and growth objectives; discount rates that were determined based on comparable discount rates for our peer group; compa ny specific risk considerations and cost of capital based on our historical experience. Each reporting unit’s estimated fair value depends on various factors including its expected ability to achieve profitable growth. Based on our assumptions, at that time, the estimated fair value exceeded the net asset carrying value for each of our reporting units as of May 31, 201 5 . Accordingly, there was no indication of impairment of our goodwill for any of our reporting units. As of May 31, 2015, the estimated fair value of our Disputes, Forensics & Legal Technology, Financial Services Advisory and Compliance, Healthcare, and Energy reporting units exceeded their net asset carrying values by 16% , 61% , 25% , and 32%, respectively . We have reviewed our most recent financial projections and considered the impact of changes to our business and market conditions on our goodwill valuation and determined that no events or conditions have occurred or are expected to occur that would trigger a need to perform an interim goodwill impairment test. We will continue to monitor the factors and key assumptions used in determining the fair value of each of our reporting units. There can be no assurance that goodwill or intangible assets will not be impaired in the future. We will perform our next annual goodwill impair ment test as of May 31, 2016 .

The compensation costs will be recognized as an expense over the remaining vesting periods. The weighted average remaining vesting period is approximately two years. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , we granted an aggregate of 348,744 share-based awards, consisting of restricted stock units and stock options with an aggregate fair value of $3.6 million at the time of grant. These grants include certain awards that vest based on relative achievement of pre-established performance criteria.

SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET INFORMATION Accounts Receivable, net The components of accounts receivable were as follows (in thousands):    March 31, December 31,  2016 2015  Billed amounts $ 148,921 $ 153,837  Engagements in process 103,134 80,102  Allowance for uncollectible billed amounts (11,015) (9,797)  Allowance for uncollectible engagements in process (10,863) (7,482)  Accounts receivable, net $ 230,177 $ 216,660  Receivables attributable to engagements in process represent balances for services that have been performed and earned but have not been billed to the client. Services are generally billed on a monthly basis for the prior month’s services. Our allowance for uncollectible accounts is based on historical experience and management judgment and may change based on market conditions or specific client circumstances. Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets The components of prepaid expenses and other current assets were as follows (in thousands):    March 31, December 31,  2016 2015  Notes receivable - current $ 2,829 $ 3,342  Prepaid recruiting and retention incentives - current 11,020 9,688  Other prepaid expenses and other current assets 19,298 16,699  Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 33,147 $ 29,729 Other Assets The components of other assets were as follows (in thousands):   March 31, December 31,  2016 2015  Notes receivable - non-current $ 2,119 $ 4,420  Capitalized client-facing software 1,406 1,567  Prepaid recruiting and retention incentives - non-current 15,256 14,009  Prepaid expenses and other non-current assets 2,262 2,535  Other assets $ 21,043 $ 22,531  Notes receivable, current and non-current, represent unsecured employee loans. These loans were issued to recruit or r etain certain senior-level client-service employees . During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, no such loans were issued. The principal amount and accrued interest on these loans is either paid by the employee or forgiven by us over the term of the loans so long as the employee remains continuously employed by us and complies with certain contractual requirements. The expense associated with the forgiveness of the principal amount of the loans is amortized as compensation expense over the service period, which is consistent with the term of the loans. Capitalized client-facing software is used by our clients as part of client engagements. These amounts are amortized into cost of services before reimbursable expenses over their estimated remaining useful life. Prepaid recruiting and retention incentives, current and non-current, include sign-on and retention bonuses that are generally recoverable from an employee if the employee voluntarily terminates employment or if the employee’s employment is terminated for “cause” prior to fulfilling his or her obligations to us. These amounts are amortized as compensation expense over the period in which they are recoverable from the employee, generally in periods up to six years. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 we granted $6.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of sign-on and retention bonuses, which have been included in current and non-current prepaid recruiting and retention incentives. Property and Equipment, net Property and equipment, net consisted of (in thousands):     March 31, December 31,  2016 2015  Furniture, fixtures and equipment $ 62,520 $ 63,995  Software 79,935 77,910  Leasehold improvements 43,161 40,560  Property and equipment, at cost 185,616 182,465  Less: accumulated depreciation (109,717) (105,748)  Property and equipment, net $ 75,899 $ 76,717  During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , we recorded $ 5.0 million in property and equipment which included $2.0 million in our technology infrastructure and softwa re and $1.0 million in furniture . We also recorded $2.6 million in leasehold improvements ( $0.8 million was non-cash) related to the build-outs of various office spaces. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , we retired $2.5 million in fully depreciated assets. Other Current Liabilities The components of other current liabilities were as follows (in thousands):    March 31, December 31,  2016 2015  Deferred acquisition liabilities $ 10,072 $ 1,665  Deferred revenue 16,702 19,317  Deferred rent - short term 2,983 2,909  Other current liabilities 2,574 8,256  Total other current liabilities $ 32,331 $ 32,147    Other Non-Current Liabilities The components of other non-current liabilities were as follows (in thousands):    March 31, December 31,  2016 2015  Deferred acquisition liabilities $ - $ 8,300  Deferred rent - long term 14,453 14,358  Other non-current liabilities 6,618 6,298  Total other non-current liabilities $ 21,071 $ 28,956  D eferred acquisition liabilities , current and non-current, at March 31, 2016 consisted of cash obligations related to definitive and contingent purchase price considerations recorded at net present value and fair value, respectively . During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we made a payment of $5.5 million to the selling members of McKinnis for cash held in the business at closing, which reduced other current liabilities. The current and non-current portion s of deferred rent relates to tenant allowances and incentives on lease arrangements for our office facilities that expire at various dates through 2028 . At March 31, 2016 , other non-current liabilities included $2.4 million of performance-based long-term incentive compensation liabilities. As part of our long-term incentive program for select senior-level client service employees and leaders, we grant restricted stock units which vest three years from the grant date based on the achievement of certain performance targets during the prior year. Deferred revenue represents advance billings to our clients for services that have not yet been performed and earned.

Derivatives And Hedging Activity [Abstract]
Derivatives And Hedging Activity	9 . DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITY During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the following interest rate derivatives were outstanding (summarized based on month of execution):    Number of Derivative Total Notional Amount  Month executed Contracts Beginning Date Maturity Date Rate (millions)  May 2012 1 June 28, 2013 May 27, 2016 1.15% $5.0  July 2014 5 July 11, 2014 July 11, 2017 1.10% $30.0  March 2015 1 May 29, 2015 May 31, 2018 1.47% $10.0  June 2015 1 June 30, 2015 June 30, 2018 1.40% $5.0   We expect the interest rate derivatives to be highly effective against changes in cash flows related to changes in interest rates and have recorded the derivatives as a cash flow hedge. As a result, gains or losses related to fluctuations in the fair value of the interest rate derivatives are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into interest expense as the variable interest expense on our bank debt is recorded. There was no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate derivatives during the three months ended March 31, 2016 . For each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , we recorded $0.1 million in interest expense associated with differentials received or paid under the interest rate derivatives. At March 31, 2016 , we had $ 0.4 million of net liability related to the interest rate derivatives.

Bank Debt [Abstract]
Bank Debt	1 0 . BANK DEBT Our credit agreement provides a $400.0 million revolving credit facility. At our option, subject to the terms and conditions specified in the credit agreement, we may elect to increase commitments under the credit facility up to an aggregate amount of $500.0 million. The credit facility becomes due and payable in full upon maturity in September 2018 . Borrowings and repayments under the credit facility may be made in multiple currencies including U nited States Dollars, Canadian Dollars, United Kingdom Pound Sterling and Euro. At March 31, 2016 , we had aggregate borrowings outstanding of $211.5 million, compared to $173.7 million at December 31, 2015 . Based on our financial covenants at March 31, 2016 , approximately $179.0 million in additional borrowings were available to us under the credit facility. At March 31, 2016 , we had $6.6 million of unused letters of credit under our credit facility, which have been included as a reduction in the available borrowings above. The letters of credit are primarily related to the requirements of certain lease agreements for office space. At our option, borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at a variable rate equal to an applicable base rate or LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin. For LIBOR loans, the applicable margin varies depending upon our consolidated leverage ratio (the ratio of total funded debt to adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the credit agreement). At March 31, 2016 , the applicable margins on LIBOR and base rate loans were 1.00 % and zero , respectively. Depending upon our performance and financial condition, our LIBOR loans will have applicable margins varying between 1.00 % and 2.00 % , and our base rate loans have applicable margins varying between zero and 1.00 % . Our average borrowing rate (including the impact of our interest rate derivatives; see Note 9 — Derivatives and Hedging Activity) was 2.3% and 2.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively . Our credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including covenants that require that we maintain a consolidated leverage ratio of not greater than 3.25 :1 (except for the first quarter of each calendar year when the covenant requires us to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio of not greater than 3.5 :1 ) and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (the ratio of the sum of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) and rental expense to the sum of cash interest expense and rental expense) of not less than 2.0 :1. At March 31, 2016 , under the definitions in the credit agreement, our consolidated leverage ratio was 1.7 and our consolidated interest coverage ratio was 4.9 . In addition, the credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (subject to customary exceptions), including covenants that limit our ability to incur liens or other encumbrances, make investments, incur indebtedness, enter into mergers, consolidations and asset sales, change the nature of our business and engage in transactions with affiliates, as well as customary provisions with respect to events of default. We were in compliance with the covenants contained in our credit agreement at March 31, 2016 ; however, there can be no assurances that we will remain in compliance in the future.

Fair Value

Fair Value [Abstract]
Fair Value	1 1 . FAIR VALUE Fair value is defined as the price that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. As circumstances change, we will reassess the level in which the inputs are included in the fair value hierarchy. We utilize a third-party to value our interest rate derivatives. The interest rate derivatives are used to hedge the risk of variability from interest payment s on our borrowings (see Note 9 – Derivatives and Hedging Activity). A majority of the inputs used in determining the fair value of the derivatives is derived mainly from Level 2 observations which include counterparty quotations in over the counter markets. However, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs , such as estimates of current credit spreads , to evaluate the likelihood of default by ourselves and our counterparties. We determined that these adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, our interest rate derivatives are classified in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. In certain instances our acquisitions provide for deferred contingent acquisition payments. These deferred payments are recorded at fair value at the time of acquisition and are included in other current and/or non-current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We estimate the fair value of our deferred contingent acquisition liabilities using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. This fair value measure is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. Fair value measurements characterized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are measured based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect our own assumptions in measuring fair value. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of our deferred contingent acquisition liabilities are our measures of the future profitability and related cash flows and discount rates. The fair value of the deferred contingent acquisition liabilities is reassessed on a quarterly basis based on assumptions provided to us by segment and business area leaders in conjunction with our corporate development and finance departments . Any change in the fair value estimate is recorded in the earnings of that period. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , no such adjustments were made, and during the three months ended March 31, 2015, we recorded $ 14.9 million in other operating benefit for a net reduction in the liability reflecting changes in the fair value estimate of the contingent consideration for cer tain acquisitions made in 2014 and 2013 (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in our 2015 Form 10-K). The following table summarizes the changes in deferred contingent acquisition liabilities (in thousands):      For the three months ended  March 31,  2016 2015   Beginning Balance $ 8,782 $ 23,272  Acquisitions - 3,765  Accretion of acquisition-related contingent consideration 167 825  Remeasurement of acquisition-related contingent consideration - (14,933)  Payments (49) -  Ending Balance $ 8,900 $ 12,929  At March 31, 2016 , the carrying value of our bank debt approximated fair value as it bears interest at variable rates . We consider the recorded value of our other financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at March 31, 2016 based upon the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities. The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 ( in thousands):    Quoted Prices in  Active Markets for Significant Other Significant  Identical Assets Observable Inputs Unobservable Inputs  (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total  At March 31, 2016  Interest rate derivatives, net $ — $ 370 $ — $ 370  Deferred contingent acquisition liabilities $ — $ — $ 8,900 $ 8,900  At December 31, 2015  Interest rate derivatives, net $ — $ 189 $ — $ 189  Deferred contingent acquisition liabilities $ — $ — $ 8,782 $ 8,782

OTHER OPERATING COSTS (BENEFIT) Contingent Acquisition Liability Adjustment, Net During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , we recorded a benefit of $14.9 million relating to fair value adjustments to our estimated deferred contingent acquisition liabi lities . Contingent acquisition liabilities are initially estimated based on expected performance at the acquisition date and subsequently re viewed each quarter (see Note 11 – Fair Value). Office Consolidation, Net During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , we recorded a cost of $0.9 million related to our new consolidated office space located in New York City which we took possession of on October 22, 2014. The cost included rent expense for duplicate rent as we occupied our old New York City offices un til completion of the build-out of the new space.
