Consents & engagement management
Quality of deliverables and continuous improvement at the heart of our approach
Thanks to our specialists, we provide a comprehensive service in terms of:
- “Consents Management”: management of consents and regulatory requirements
- “Engagement Management”: engagement and coordination with stakeholders
By adopting this global approach from the initial project stages, our teams ensure that the lessons learned from making each deliverable available are integrated into the subsequent development, with a view to ensuring continuous optimisation.
Our 4 support phases
- The pre-application phase includes strategic planning, management/revision of the EIA, stakeholder engagement, identification of regulatory authorisations, communication, and public consultation, etc.
- The analysis phase includes the production of documentary evidence for reports/assessments, expert reviews, negotiations and final consent from stakeholders, consultants, and lawyer instructions.
- The delivery and completion phase includes proactive management of all the regulatory approvals, conducting negotiations, coordinating with strategic partners, undergoing engagement, and communicating with stakeholders.
- The return on experience phase includes feedback on information and key takeaways for the next stage/the next deliverable.
We optimise this methodology by using digital tools.
