Phase I environmental
Verdantas
Verdantas is an integrated environmental science, engineering, and consulting firm working across environmental assessment and remediation, water, civil and geotechnical engineering, and energy transition projects.
The firm was assembled by gathering existing consulting companies rather than growing out of a single office. Engineering disciplines include geotechnical and geological, site and roadway civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, automation, hydrology and hydraulics, water and wastewater systems, and surveying and reality capture. Environmental services cover environmental assessment and remediation, CERCLA/RCRA and multiparty remediation, Superfund project coordination and liability management, environmental health and safety, natural resources and environmental planning, and sustainability advisory. A digital group builds GIS and data systems for clients alongside the engineering practices.
Verdantas started in 2020 and reports roughly 2,800 professionals. It states that 90% of its work is with repeat clients, and its FY2024 impact report says approximately 78% of its projects supported the environment, energy transition, and water markets. The same report notes its first EcoVadis rating and a first materiality assessment aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative.
Because the firm is a combination of previously independent practices, the disciplines and staff available differ by region. Ask which office would run the work and which professional registrations its staff hold in your state.
Best for
Owners and developers who need environmental due diligence, remediation, or water and geotechnical engineering on a site and want those disciplines under one contract. Less suited to a buyer who only needs a quick Phase I from a local one-office shop.
