Infrastructure & Environmental Management

Frequently Asked Questions

• What Is Environmental Management?

  Environmental management is the practice of minimization and mitigation of human impacts on the surrounding environment. It involves planning, operating, monitoring, developing and upgrading environmental methodology to more effectively deal with natural resources.  Environmental management also focuses on describing and monitoring environmental changes alongside forecasting and predicting future changes for safeguarding the planet.

  Understanding the composition and operation of the earth’s systems, as well as the relationships between people and their surroundings, are key components of environmental management. Environmental management seeks to encourage human behaviours that have a positive influence on the environment in order to regulate processes and safeguard the planet.

• What Does Infrastructure & Environment Management Include?

  Infrastructure and environmental management involves working with clients from the tender stage, through to delivery and completion of the infrastructure project. This includes working on project approvals andenvironmental management plans for all aspects of the project, plus onsite management and support to the construction team.

  Resource management, geography, environmental science, and other fields are covered by environmental management. Assessment, management, and oversight of an organisation’s environmental effects are also included.
