The passionate team at Umwelt is ready to support and guide you through your environmental management and compliance requirements.
Integrated Solutions
Our highly experienced consultants work closely with clients to provide tailored solutions that:
- Support environmental and social risk management
- Drive strong regulatory and system compliance
- Improve an organisation’s environment and social performance
Deep analytical, technical, and operational expertise underpins the development of environmental management systems and plans, compliance and risk management, and operational support. Our integrated and practical approach can be applied to all industries and sectors, and in all environmental and social contexts.
Collaborative Approach
Together with our clients, we carefully consider all statutory, risk and operational requirements to provide environmental management and compliance solutions that are relevant, practical and add value.
Auditing and Due Diligence
Umwelt offers extensive knowledge and guidance in the field of environmental auditing and due diligence review. Our auditing team (which includes lead auditors) is supported by in-house technical specialists in auditing specific environmental aspects for biodiversity, rehabilitation, cultural heritage, noise, surface water, groundwater and social aspects.
Operational Support
We provide environmental operational support for government, infrastructure, defence, resources, construction, industry and more. The guidance and assistance we offer includes desktop support, technical site support, audits/inspections, on-site contract roles, liaison with regulatory bodies, compliance management, sustainability analysis and reporting, and completion of environmental performance reporting.
Operational Environment Support
Remote and onsite environmental operational support is offered to a variety of infrastructure, resources, industrial and construction activities. We can provide full environmental site support with on-site personnel, compliance management, technical support and reporting. Targeted support assists client teams during times of increased site workloads or where site personnel may be unavailable. Your staff can also be given the correct training and operational experience to meet your on-site needs.
Construction Management
We support construction projects to ensure compliance requirements are met and high quality environmental and social outcomes are delivered.
Environmental/social management and monitoring services include community engagement and stakeholder management, biodiversity, heritage, water, noise and vibration, visual and other environmental monitoring services.
Construction Environmental Management Plans (CEMP’s) support on site construction activities.
Soil and water management expertise includes water resources engineers with Certified Practitioner in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC) status. We can prepare detailed erosion and sediment control plans (ESCPs) in accordance with relevant guidelines. The full suite of on-site support and inspections is available to deliver effective site soil and water management outcomes.
Construction project experience includes road upgrades, rail bridge replacement, mine infrastructure construction, industrial facility construction and residential construction.
Where issues arise, we can also assist with incident investigations, reporting and management.
Environmental Compliance and Risk Management
Effective environmental compliance management is a critical component of good business.
Our compliance management systems identify and address environmental issues in a practical way. They must meet operational needs, demonstrate a focus on relevant statutory requirements and facilitate real improvements in environmental performance, community relations and business outcomes. We can work with existing client compliance systems, or deliver tailored compliance management systems that complement on-site and corporate management programs.
Accredited risk assessment facilitators can assist with your risk assessment programs, or design and implement a risk management framework for you. They are adept at delivering risk workshops from high level, whole of business corporate risk assessments, through to issue and site-specific assessments.
Environmental performance and compliance reporting includes statutory, public environment and internal corporate reports. Maintenance of onsite compliance and risk management systems is also provided.
