Integrating biodiversity from the outset
Our specialist biodiversity team works collaboratively with disciplines from across the business to help our clients not only navigate biodiversity net gain (BNG) regulations but go beyond compliance to build long-term resilience and future-proof impact.
From feasibility studies and strategic site reviews to environmental and habitat management plans and long term site monitoring, our end-to-end range of services is designed to deliver truly sustainable project outcomes and help you achieve your strategic and commercial objectives.
Our comprehensive range of biodiversity and ecology services cover the full lifespan of a development project, from inception through to long term maintenance.
Strategic Ecology
The earlier you can integrate biodiversity, the better. By creating a framework and methodology for assessing, managing and enhancing the ecological elements of your development, you can avoid costly mistakes and preempt potential challenges before they occur. From feasibility studies to peer reviews, advice on habitat banking to development of local nature recovery strategies, our strategic ecology services get your project off on the right foot from day one.
Applied Ecology
Maximise the probability of getting your application through planning first time with our comprehensive range of planning ecology services, which includes programme management to build in efficiencies and reduce unnecessary delays. Our services range from Preliminary Ecological Appraisals (PEA) to specialist support to navigate crucial ecological planning requirements such as Landscape and Ecological Management Plans (LEMP).
Environmental delivery
Bring your project plans to life with an expert partner taking care of the environmental elements, including biodiversity and ecology, ensuring you hit key compliance targets and mitigating the risk of breaching planning conditions and the financial and reputational damage that can bring. Our landscape ecologists and LCoWs can help with a range of essential services designed to take the pressure off your team.
Biodiversity monitoring
Ensure your ecological impact lasts with ongoing services such as habitat enhancement for BNG and monitoring for SINC sites, helping you deliver long term plans and avoid the potential backlash that comes with not following through on ecological commitments. Our monitoring services are available for as long as you need them to secure the full lifetime value and compliance of your development.
