Reducing negative impacts on the environment is now a key focus area for government, industry and regulatory bodies. As such, within the environment field there is an ever increasing amount of legislation resulting in the number and range of policies, strategies and initiatives being developed within the public and private sectors aimed at minimising environmental impact.

With our background in energy governance Gemserv can offer critical insight into how interconnection between environmental and energy initiatives contributes to the effective implementation of legislation and government policy driving these two markets. This is achieved using Gemserv’s expertise in:

• Analysis and identification of potential impacts of environmental policy, legislation and strategies;
• Provision of consultancy advice during the development phases of environmental initiatives;
• Delivery of appropriate stakeholder consultation approaches;
• Development of robust, practical and workable frameworks, processes and procedures for the implementation of legislation, strategies and policies;
• Establishment and delivery of verification and assurance procedures to assess compliance with environmental legislation, policies and initiatives; and
• Development of training programmes and communication strategies for those participating in or affected by such environmental initiatives.

The Environment Team within Gemserv has extensive expertise in all of these areas supported by a track record of programme management and continuous service improvement. This, combined with the partnership approach Gemserv takes with all its clients, has enabled us to establish our reputation as an independent and expert provider of consultancy and business process solutions in the environmental field.
