Our services
We promote ecologically sustainable development
We are passionate about helping guide our clients through environmental legislation and stakeholder approvals processes. We help you get your project up and running, reducing the down-time associated with ‘green tape’.
Environmental Approvals and impact assessments
We help our clients through the approvals process and offer a range of solutions and assessment options to ensure your Project meets all legislative and regulatory requirements
Access to Funding
We help our clients to access environmental funding opportunities for a range of projects, and then help them to build their ventures.
From pre-development surveys to project close-out and rehabilitation, The Environmental Factor can provide a range of services to meet the environmental factor of your project.
We have helped Councils, farmers and small landholders alike to not only access grants for environmental projects but then also project managed these funds once received to ensure mutually beneficial outcomes for all involved.
