If society is to prosper we all need to move to a more sustainable model of development. Demonstrating consideration of sustainability is now recognised as a commercial imperative; a requirement driven by national and international policies and legislation plus customer and wider public expectations.

At Gifford, in common with our leading clients, we recognise that the sustainability agenda has become diverse and complex. This brings a bewildering array of challenges in areas such as climate change and carbon management, resource management and waste, all of which call for improved decision making.

Our specialists regard sustainability not as an isolated discipline but as an all embracing way of viewing the world. It is integral to Gifford and is embedded in our approach to projects as well as our internal practices. We also share our skills and expertise with clients, architects, owners and developers to ensure that the work of our inter-disciplinary teams is sustainable. In other words that it is environmentally sound, financially viable and socially responsible.

Capablilties include:

  • BREEAM, LEED and CEEQUAL assessment
  • Corporate sustainability strategy
  • Procurement advice
  • Sustainability strategies
