Licensing and Permitting

Environmental permitting and licensing requirements should not be viewed as a hurdle to economic development, but as a tool supporting growth on a sustainable basis.

WSP provides technical and strategic services to ensure an expeditious process in obtaining required permits and licences on schedule. Our experts have international experience in site evaluation and selection, and permitting and licensing consulting. We have worked on client projects across the world in a variety of sectors, including transportation, buildings, infrastructure and energy. Environmental licensing may involve the overlapping interests of different levels of governments and institutions. When a project needs to be submitted to more than one public authority, we have the expertise and experience to efficiently manage the licensing process in a timely manner.

When projects involve the overlapping interests of different stakeholders, our Stakeholder Management expertise ensures timely communication and supports project success.
