In Phase I we will check all the available documents relevant to your project, one standard check list including more than 160 checking points related to EHS permits, licenses, governance and management system will be carefully going through, if necessary, one customized checklist will be made considering customer’s concern.

We will also conduct a site visit to assess the on-site situation. As far as possible, our experts will assess the financial risks based on the insights gained in Phase I. If the relevant documents and site visits do not provide sufficient information to assess the risks, we may need to conduct the more in-depth Phase II analyses with regard to particular issues.

The Phase II work are more in-depth than those in Phase I. Information is gathered by way of public authority enquiries, technical data and documents, analyses of buildings for contaminants, and sampling of emissions, soil and groundwater. The facts gleaned in this phase back up the results already obtained and help to assess and limit monetary risks.
