Environment and sustainability consulting
Delivering practical environmental solutions for a changing world
We navigate evolving environmental and climate challenges with practical science-driven solutions that help drive business resilience for our customers. We develop clear, practical strategies for our customers to enable streamlined, permittable, energy efficient, and sustainable projects, and create long term benefits for sharing value for societies, natural capital and biodiversity.
Regulations and permitting
The regulatory landscape continuously evolves. We provide strategic insights into policy changes and regulatory risks to streamline the permitting process from idea to application to approval. Our depth of regulatory knowledge draws on our history of project delivery across the globe. Our expertise in environmental and social impact assessments and permitting delivers compliance while promoting ecosystem enhancement and meaningful engagement with Indigenous communities, stakeholders and regulators.
Sharing social benefits
We foster lasting relationships with Indigenous communities, local stakeholders and government entities. By integrating community input, we uncover new opportunities that align with our customers’ goals to enable mutually successful outcomes. Our partnerships with Indigenous businesses, local content planning and procurement strategies create positive impacts and long-term benefits that are based on trust and shared value for the local communities.
Responsible water solutions
Our sustainable approach to water stewardship delivers across the water cycle and the project lifecycle. We plan and deliver water programs from responsible sourcing and treatment, use, beneficial re-use, and discharge. We have deep expertise in desalination to overcome water scarcity and realize water circularity. With global expertise from planning, operating and maintaining water assets around the globe, our scientists, modelers and engineers design and implement solutions that optimize water efficiency while maintaining reliable supply and responsible stewardship.
Geoscience analysis and solutions
Our comprehensive geotechnical investigation, engineering design, geochemistry and geospatial services identify geohazard risks, confirm geologic and geotechnical viability and enable sustainable infrastructure and resource development. We deliver robust site characterizations, plan for geotechnical risks and optimize project development timeframes and safety throughout the asset lifecycle.
Liability management, sustainable remediation and asset transition
We get straight to the point – identifying and investigating environmental hazards so you know exactly what you’re up against. Our teams plan, collect data, analyze and interpret environmental information using advanced modeling tools to assess the risks, quantify liabilities and identify sustainable mitigation strategies. We adopt a pragmatic approach to determine and deliver the optimum remediation solution to transform liabilities into assets for the future.
Data driven decision-making
Reliable data are the foundation of informed decision-making. Our structured data management platform is designed to organize, manage and report environmental and geological datasets which helps to improve reporting timelines and allow for informed decision-making. We follow strict standardization and automation protocols when collecting, storing and analyzing data so that users can visualize multiple parameters clearly and tap into efficiencies for better management of their assets.
A guide to sharing value and building trust with communities to achieve net zero
Growing community resistance to projects is affecting developers’ ability to deliver new infrastructure required to meet net zero. This guide outlines emerging thinking and provides practical tips for building trust with communities and other stakeholders, so critical projects can proceed.
