While the main purpose of defence establishments worldwide and
their contractors is to defend territories, they also recognise
their responsibility to manage often large estates and improve the
living and working environments for military personnel.
Mott MacDonald has been commissioned for many defence contracts
globally, for airforce, army and navy, as well as for suppliers to
the defence industry. Issues facing this sector often include
conservation of large tracts of land, remediation of contaminated
land and the construction of new barracks and associated
infrastructure.
Our expertise in defence includes:
- Phase I and II contaminated land ground investigations,
comprising soil and groundwater assessments, management plans for
the mitigation of risks and land remediation.
- Building research establishment environmental assessments
(BREEAM) for new building projects
- Environmental impact
assessments (EIAs) for new roads and installations
- Feasibility studies, EIAs and traffic management plans on
defence estates
- Environmental management
