Consultants unite to advance the sector’s role in delivering a sustainable transition.
SWCA today announced it has joined six global sustainability delivery consultancies operating in the engineering and construction industry to form Environment Analyst’s North American Sustainability Delivery Group. The group will lead several initiatives to develop and enhance the sector’s role in delivering a sustainable transition.
“As one of the world’s largest pure play natural and cultural resource firms, clients count on us to address tough sustainability and business challenges. We do it by linking strategy to project implementation, thinking innovatively, and delivering solutions that benefit business while also helping the environment and society,” said Robert Kloepfer, SWCA’s Global Strategic Management Officer. “By working with other firms through the Environment Analyst’s North American Sustainability Delivery Group, we can amplify our impact and accelerate progress towards a more sustainable future.”
The founding members of the group are AECOM, Arcadis, Jacobs, Mott MacDonald, Ramboll, SWCA, and WSP. Together they employ 250,000 engineers, designers, and sustainability specialists globally, with combined revenues of $48bn in 2022.
“This sector remains uniquely placed to deliver the sustainable transformation of infrastructure and the built environment in North America,” said Ross Griffiths, chair of Environment Analyst’s North American Sustainability Delivery Group. “Its ability to bring best in class technical sustainability and environmental consultants to bear in the design, engineering, and construction of North America’s next generation of infrastructure will be critical to delivering net zero targets in an equitable way.
“This group enables the participants to coordinate their efforts and collaborate to develop a shared vision of how sustainability objectives will be operationalized and delivered in the years to come. It also allows them to form consensus on the challenges ahead and how they can be mitigated.”
