CUSIP NO. 320960107 SCHEDULE 13D Page 6 of 9
This Amendment No. 3 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D")
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on June
29, 2000 by BLUM Capital Partners, L.P., a California limited partnership
("BLUM L.P."); Richard C. Blum & Associates, Inc., a California corporation
("RCBA Inc."); RCBA GP, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("RCBA
GP"); and Richard C. Blum, the Chairman and a substantial shareholder of RCBA
Inc. and a managing member of RCBA GP (collectively, the "Reporting Persons").
This amendment relates to shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 (the
"Common Stock") of Navigant Consulting Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Issuer"). The principal executive office and mailing address of the Issuer
is 615 North Wabash Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60611. The following amendments
are hereby made. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
---------------------------------------------
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
(a),(b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-Q, there were 41,300,000
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of August 14, 2000. Based on
such information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item
5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report direct holdings as follows: (i) BLUM
L.P. and RCBA Inc. report holdings of 469,500 of the Common Stock on behalf of
the limited partnerships for which BLUM L.P. serves as the general partner and
BLUM L.P.'s investment advisory clients, which represents 1.1% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock; (ii) RCBA GP reports holdings of
1,389,200 shares of the Common Stock on behalf of the limited partnership for
which it serves as the general partner, which represents 3.4% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock; and (iii) Mr. Blum reports the
aggregate of these shares for a total of 1,858,700 shares of the Common Stock,
which represents 4.5% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock.
In addition, because BLUM L.P. has voting and investment power with respect to
57,600 shares that are legally owned by The Common Fund for the account of its
Equity Fund ("The Common Fund"), those shares are reported as beneficially
owned by BLUM L.P. The Common Fund is principally engaged in the business of
managing investments for educational institutions. The principal
administrative office of The Common Fund is located at 15 Old Danbury Road,
Wilton, Connecticut 06897-0812. The Common Fund disclaims membership in a
group with any of the Reporting Persons, and disclaims beneficial ownership of
any shares held by the Reporting Persons.
Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by
BLUM L.P. and RCBA GP. The Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be
members in a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to
have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 1,916,300 shares of the Common
Stock, which is 4.6% of the outstanding Common Stock. As the sole general
partner of BLUM L.P., RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the
securities over which BLUM L.P. has voting and investment power. As Chairman,
director and a substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be
deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA
NO. 320960107 SCHEDULE 13D Page 7 of 9
Inc. Additionally, Mr. Blum may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
securities over which RCBA GP has voting and investment power. Although Mr.
Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the filing of this
Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any of the other
shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc., or managing CUSIP
members and members of RCBA GP, is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of
any of the securities that are beneficially owned by RCBA Inc. or RCBA GP,
except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
(c) During the last sixty (60) days, the Reporting Persons sold the following
shares of Common Stock in the open market:

(d) Not applicable.
(e) As of October 26, 2000, Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners
of more than five percent of the Common Stock.
