Environmental due diligence

The Environmental Due Diligence (EDD)  process involves evaluating historical land-use data and activities, interviewing relevant staff, site inspecting sites and evaluating risks and potential costs. It often includes health and safety issues. Our project experience covers a large range of customers and industries, such as estate agents, hotels, and refineries. Buying customers benefit from a potential reduction in sales price, selling customers benefit from an unchanged sales price.

A full EDD process normally includes:

• Start-up meetings with customer or lawyer    
• Phase I     
• Data room inspection     
• Questionnaire or interviews with managers
• Site inspection
• Report, including findings, risk evaluation, liability costs, recommendations
• Phase II

These general processes are always tailored to meet our customers’ needs.

• Field investigations of recommended issues from phase I
• Report, including detailed budgets of remediation or abatement
• Phase III    
• Remediation of located contamination, abatement of noise, vibrations or odour
