Experience – Knowledge – Commitment

The concept of Zero Waste has changed how society thinks about natural resources and environmental protection. Congruent designs innovative zero waste plans that are flexible, financially viable and scalable so that our clients can create a better world for the future. In 2020, we were recognized by the Legislature of the U.S. Territory of Guam “…for our vision, courage and unwavering dedication to the long work of building environmental, economic and social justice through zero waste planning and sustainable materials management, all of which serve to build resilience.”

Get your business, programs and projects going in the right direction. Today’s world demands that a business plan really be a business process. Congruent personnel have a reputation for effectively managing both routine and complex strategic planning situations. We help clients find the right direction, develop key strategies, figure out how to get there faster, and provide advice on how to implement initiatives in an economically and environmentally sustainably manner.

Navigating complex federal, state, local or international regulations for environmental compliance is a demanding task. Congruent personnel have extensive regulatory analysis experience and excellent relationships with senior regulatory agency professionals. We serve as a liaison between regulatory agencies and our clients, providing regulatory analysis and interpretation, management plans, and litigation support in the environmental regulatory arena.

The most important part of any long journey is having a vision for the future. Congruent helps clients explore and clarify what their organization needs to move forward. We simultaneously seek external stakeholders’ input to inform the discussion and ensure that the organization can “see itself as others see it.” As part of the consensus building process, our professionals assist organizations stretch to a level of vision and commitment that will motivate stakeholders to envision a future filled with great possibilities for impact and work together to realize it.

More for less. Value for money. Today, the reality is that limited resources force us to create more value for less money. The importance of accurately estimating long-term savings and resulting economic impacts, as well as developing realistic and sustainable financial strategies for plans, projects and programs is critically important. Congruent’s technical and quantitative expertise, in conjunction with our relevant experience in economic issues affecting the natural and built environment allows us to provide decision makers with a clear understanding of contingent liabilities and their proper valuation. We are skilled at preparing economic analysis ranging from planning/feasibility cost studies to detailed environmental insurance claim cost estimates.
