Combining our global vision with local expertise

Water

The world needs water. It’s essential for health, society, and prosperity. It’s part of life itself. But increasing regulations and the acceleration of climate change are putting pressure on water utilities and industrial water users. We need to change our relationship with water to protect supply for the future.

Climate resilience

As the atmosphere warms and sea levels rise, climate hazards are becoming more frequent and more severe. Even as carbon emissions reduce, the risk of flooding, coastal erosion, droughts, heatwaves, and storms will continue to increase. The earlier we can protect people, assets, and infrastructure, the better.

We bring a unique blend of consultancy, design, engineering and software solutions which address climate mitigation and adaptation. From climate change awareness, risk modelling and adaptation planning to nature-based solutions and early warning systems, we support you in every step of your journey.
