Project Strategy

Aquifer Solutions considers a balanced strategic foundation to be critical to every project.  We work closely with our clients, listen to their objectives, and then we synthesize technical, business and stakeholder issues and concerns to develop a solid project strategy. 

Our emphasis on project strategy is genuine, and is an integral part of our company culture and our philosophy of disciplined project performance.  Developing and executing an effective project strategy involves more than simply performing net present value calculations or evaluating regulatory requirements.  A winning project strategy requires the abandonment of bias toward preferred approaches or presumptive remedies and is built on an informed perspective that is mindful of all alternatives and is supported by years of practical experience.

Project strategy involves considering the regulatory environment, schedule requirements, technical alternatives, cost-benefit, and potential uncertainty and risks.  Often, the relative degree of risk (in)tolerance and an understanding of potential sources of risk are the main drivers in determining the most appropriate project strategy.  Aquifer Solutions focuses on listening and clear client communication as critical steps to develop an informed perspective of the decision-making landscape that drives strategy development for a project.

Some of Aquifer Solutions experiences that lead to effective strategy development include:

• Successful resolution of multi-party environmental liability determination.
• Successful development and implementation of an accelerated remediation strategy, achieving No Further Action regulatory closure in 3 years compared to baseline timeframes of 15-20 years.
• Experience in regulatory environments across the U.S. as well as in Europe, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Taiwan, Australia, and more.
