Process built around
your decision —
not just your data

Acousticians, environmental engineers and field technicians — we take the readings and write the report.

How the work runs

Our six-step process provides a consistent framework, from investigating a complaint about a single fan to preparing a strategic noise map for an entire district. The scope and detail are tailored to each project.

01

Problem

What is actually being asked — a complaint, a permit condition, a limit that may or may not be exceeded.

02

Evidence

Measured on site, to standard, with the uncertainty stated. Numbers, not impressions.

03

Scenarios

We compare proposed changes with the measured baseline to assess their likely effects.

04

Decision

The options ranked against the limits that apply and what each one costs to reach them.

05

Implementation

Handed to whoever builds it — with the acceptance criteria written down in advance.

06

Verification

Follow-up measurements check whether the applicable limits have been met and identify any further action needed.

The methods
a decision rests on

Five ways of establishing a fact. Most questions need more than one, and which ones is settled by the question rather than picked off a list.

Measurement

Taken on site, to standard, with the uncertainty stated — at the receptor that matters rather than at the fence line. It is what settles whether a limit is really exceeded.

Modelling

We assess design options against the measured baseline, while changes are still easier and less costly to make.

Data analysis

We analyse measurements over longer periods to identify trends, taking weather and operating conditions into account.

Expert assessments

We prepare assessments and technical opinions for submission to the relevant authority, with input from the team that carried out the measurements.

Accredited testing

Carried out under the laboratory's accreditation, so the number holds when a regulator, a neighbour or a court pushes back.

What stands behind it

Group capabilities. Our measurement work connects with the group’s capabilities in solution design and ongoing monitoring, allowing findings to inform the next stage of work.
