KCQ - Loss provisions

My company has in their liabilities a “provision for loss on engineering services contract”.  I don’t understand whether this is a loss the company has actually incurred as a result of this contract, e.g. it cost them more to do the work than the revenue they were to receive per the contract?  Or, is this item an expression of the costs yet to be outlaid as the completion of the project isn’t expected until 2014?
