About us

Due diligence is evaluating a potential investment or product to assess its potential risks and benefits. Our clients need to incorporate geotechnical data, environmental data, franchise utility limitations, City Light (overhead and below-grade powerlines), and site access into the due diligence process, which is crucial to ensure the success and profitability of your project.

Geotechnical data includes information about a site's soil, rock, and groundwater conditions, which can impact the cost and structural design of the foundation of a building. 

Environmental data provides information about potential below-grade contamination that could affect the soil or groundwater. We can never know the true extent of contamination until the project has been excavated, which is too late. With our experience, we can help provide our clients with the feedback they need to make informed decisions and understand the potential cost exposures associated with contamination.

City Light and Franchise Utility companies provide service to almost every building. They can have aerial lines that encroach on the property and require setbacks or easements that limit what you can build. Understanding these limitations can help our clients plan for those limitations and ensure that the project complies with these regulations.

Site access is also an important consideration for our clients, as it can affect the cost and feasibility of a project. Factors such as zoning laws, land use regulations, constructability requirements, easements, and even significant trees can impact the project's design.
 

Incorporating all this information into the due diligence process can help our clients make informed decisions about a potential project and avoid costly mistakes. We are the experts and can conduct thorough research to ensure that all relevant data is considered.
