About Sustainability Appraisals

Our Sustainability Appraisals evaluate the social, economic, and environmental impacts of organisations, specific projects and also acquisition programmes.  

This process provides important decision support. An effective sustainability appraisal will improve environmental, social and economic aspects within organisational operations or project performance. An appraisal to support acquisition will also leverage the best possible outcomes. It is also a means of identifying and mitigating any potential adverse effects. 

What we offer

We closely monitor regulatory and industry developments to help you identify, deliver and demonstrate improvements to your projects. This ensures that your projects meet the requirements of your customers.

Our appraisal process is applied in a proportional and relevant way ensuring that the outcomes are focussed upon the most appropriate issues. We utilise a range of sustainability themes which are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and a variety of industry specific requirements.

Who Sustainability Appraisals are for

Sustainability appraisals are crucial for decision makers. They help to incorporate environmental and other sustainability objectives in the formulation of policies, plans and programmes and allow for relevant issues to become part of business as usual.
