Environment
DMC provides environmental consultancy covering environmental impact assessment, risk assessment, environmental modelling and engineering design, with technical capability in noise and vibration, air pollution, water pollution, traffic, ecology, agriculture, and visual and social impact — through project planning, development, construction supervision, and restoration and aftercare.
Public expectation and legislative pressure have raised the standard of environmental management demanded of every project. DMC's multi-disciplinary base allows us to offer professional advice across the whole environmental field, from major strategic and policy studies down to the assessment of an individual site.
Our aim is cost-effective, practical environmental solutions delivered to the highest standards. In an increasingly sophisticated sector, our distinctive strength is the ability to balance environmental, economic, technical and policy considerations against each other — rather than treating the environmental case as a constraint to be worked around.
We operate within a formal quality management system aligned to national and international standards, and take projects from problem definition through to the implementation of effective solutions.
Working with specialists
Close working relationships with economists, chemists, biologists and ecologists mean we can call on additional support from specialists in associated fields whenever a project requires it — assembled into an integrated package tailored to that commission.
