We bring our world-class expertise and engineering to assist public and private sector organizations in transforming their sustainability and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategies into action.

"WSP’s mix of strategy consultants, paired with the robust technical expertise of our engineers and scientists allows us to develop and deliver strategies and reporting that is backed by data and science. With growing scrutiny and regulation, it is critical that ESG reporting is transparent and credible.”
