For smaller jobs Environmental Consultants can give a fixed price, this is because we can predict how much time we might take on such a job. Examples of this type of work might include:
However, for larger more complicated jobs pricing is site specific. For example, site works etc. may take longer dependent on the site's area, and as such Environmental Consultants may charge different amounts with regard to the following types of work.
Environmental Permitting Applications (for standard permits)
For more complex project management or bespoke permit applications it is not always possible to give fixed price. This is because before a certain amount of ground work is done for example contacting enforcement bodies, it it impossible to know the scope of works.
The Environment is in the news every day, not just the drastic headlines like oil spills, but the more chronic issues such as global warming, which are so inextricably connected to everything we do. Our business generally reports on the day to day activities, or some element of construction detail or construction mitigation
Governments around the world have invoked environmental laws and environmental regulations to help protect the environment, and to make sure people are responsible for any damage can be held to account.
For businesses, industries or individual this environmental regulation leads to lots of forms to fill in, risk assessment, reporting requirements . . . . and so on.
All this paper work is a job in itself, and is quite often outside of peoples everyday remit, just as you may seek help from an accountant, you may wish to have an Environmental Consultant guide you in meeting your environmental obligations, or to implement a discrete compliance exercise such as varying a permit.
Compliance is one area where Environmental Consultants can help. But when so many aspects of environmental management are linked to efficiency, low operational risk and lowering carbon foot prints . . why stop at what you are obliged to do?
- Company image can be improved via Environmental Management Systems.
2- A company with sustainability as its prime motivator is more attractive for investors
3 - Undertake Life Cycle Assessment to Streamline a production line.

If you are trained in Environmental Science or another Science such as Ecology or Geology, you might well wish to work for an Environmental Consultancy. But who will the Company work for? . . . .
Southwest Environmental Limited have had clients ranging from multinationals to individuals. Most of our works comes from management companies, who are looking to subcontract any number of services as part of there contract. These can be general management companies looking to outsource monitoring requirements, or construction management companies looking to "sub-out" planning, and environmental reporting.
During 2017 for example our client base was comprised of numerous entities which are shown in the pie chart to the right.
It is worth noting that as we are a reasonably small scale enterprise, our client base is likely to shift substantially from year to year. The pie chart also represents the number of jobs undertaken, and does not take in to account the earnings from each client type. For example although 24% of or jobs come from architects they generally commission multiple reports and as such make up a significant part of our turnover.
We accept all majors debit and credit cards. We also accept payment in Bitcoin (BTC) and Monero (XMR). Typically once we have agreed a price for work, we will issue an invoice for payment, often after we have completed the work.
Yes, we would be glad to advise on your planned property investment. It is important to consider all environmental constraints of a site prior to purchase. And if you plan to use an options agreement, allow enough time to carryout all of the panning work involved.
