Your Sustainable Business-Our Sustainable Science & Engineering

Environmental requirements have changed over the past 30 years…less rigidity, more creativity…and we have, too.

Working with you and your development or compliance management team, we approach your environmental project looking for what makes the most sense in the integrated life-cycle of the project and your business.

Strategically, financially and technically we can offer experience through a variety of projects and clients. We provide design, procurement and construction support, plus operation and maintenance services. We can even help you select your new site (greenfield) or one you want to redevelop (for example, brownfield). S&ME serves local, state and federal governments as well as private companies.
