Our goal is to understand the potential environmental impacts of projects before, during, and after implementation, and to ensure compliance with applicable environmental regulations and standards in the Kingdom. We assist owners and consultants in making informed decisions that minimize environmental risks and support sustainable economic development.
The importance of environmental impact assessment and environmental audit studies
First: Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) studies
An environmental impact assessment study is a comprehensive technical study, usually carried out before a project or expansion is implemented, that analyzes the potential impacts of planned activities on air, water, soil, natural resources, health, and the social environment.

- Developing solutions and strategies to improve water use efficiency and reduce unnecessary consumption.
- Supporting sustainability and environmental responsibility reports and improving the organization's image with stakeholders.
Second: Environmental Audits
Environmental audits are usually carried out for existing projects and facilities, and focus on assessing the extent to which the current activity complies with environmental regulations, standards, requirements and licensing conditions.
This usually includes:
- Review previous documents, permits, and reports.
- A comprehensive field visit to the facility's facilities, drainage points, and emission points.
- Comparing the actual situation with regulatory requirements and technical standards.
- Identifying shortcomings or instances of non-compliance and assessing their risks.
- Prepare a corrective plan with a clear timeline and responsibilities.
Service Goals
- Ensuring that new projects comply with environmental requirements from the design stage.
- Reducing negative environmental impacts and preserving natural resources.
- Supporting procedures for obtaining environmental approvals and licenses.
- Assessing the conditions of existing facilities and identifying opportunities for improvement and correction.
- Enhancing compliance with rules and regulations and reducing the likelihood of violations and fines.
Methodology for calculating the water footprint
1. Collecting initial data about the project or facility, the nature of the activities, the location, and the regulatory requirements.
2. Field studies of the surrounding environment (air, water, soil, noise, biodiversity, land uses… depending on the type of project).
3. Analyzing aspects and impacts using recognized evaluation methodologies.
4. Developing alternative scenarios or environmental mitigation and compensation measures.
5. Preparing the proposed environmental management plan and monitoring and follow-up program.
6. Prepare the final report in both languages (Arabic/English if necessary), with an administrative summary, technical appendices, tables and maps.
Service Outputs
- An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report or an integrated environmental review report with an executive summary.
- Detailed tables of impacts, results of field studies, and mitigation plans.
- Environmental management plan and environmental monitoring program proposed for the project.
- A list of recommendations and corrective actions with implementation priority and timeline.
- Maps and diagrams showing the scope of the project and environmentally sensitive areas.
Service benefits for establishments
- Facilitating the acquisition of environmental approvals and licenses in less time and with less risk.
- Reducing the chances of objections or suspensions due to unclear environmental impacts.
- Improving the project's image in front of regulators, the community and investors.
