Every successful project begins with a thorough understanding of its environmental context. CPE provides detailed environmental planning and assessment services to identify potential risks, constraints, and opportunities early in the process.
We prepare environmental impact assessments and reviews that consider land use, biodiversity, heritage, and community impacts, ensuring your project complies with state and local planning legislation. Our approach balances environmental protection with practical development outcomes, setting a strong foundation for approvals and delivery.
Navigating the planning system and securing the right approvals is often the most challenging part of a project. CPE streamlines this process by preparing planning proposals, Reviews of Environmental Factors (REFs), and development applications (DAs), while also managing applications for planning and environmental licences, permits, and approvals.
Our team ensures submissions are comprehensive, accurate, and tailored to meet the expectations of councils, regulators, and stakeholders. By anticipating potential issues and providing clear, well-documented applications, we help clients achieve faster approvals, reduce delays, and move their projects forward with confidence.
Tendering is a critical stage in ensuring projects are delivered responsibly. CPE assists clients with preparing and evaluating tender documentation, embedding environmental obligations into contracts from the outset.
We ensure that contractors are fully aware of compliance expectations, sustainability goals, and reporting requirements, reducing the risk of disputes or environmental oversights later in the project. By integrating environmental performance into tendering, we help set the standard for delivery and accountability.
From concept to completion, projects require effective coordination to succeed. CPE provides tailored project planning and management services, overseeing scheduling, stakeholder engagement, environmental compliance, and reporting.
Our hands-on approach keeps communication clear, risks managed, and milestones on track. By taking an integrated role in delivery, we give clients confidence that their projects will be completed on time, within budget, and in line with environmental commitments.
Construction activities can create significant environmental pressures if not managed carefully. CPE develops and implements Construction Environmental Management Plans (CEMPs) to mitigate impacts such as noise, dust, erosion, water quality, and waste.
We work closely with contractors to monitor site activities, provide compliance advice, and ensure that obligations are met throughout the construction phase. Our proactive management helps safeguard the surrounding community and environment while protecting project timelines and reputation.
Strong environmental outcomes don’t end when a project is complete — they require ongoing systems and evaluation. CPE designs, implements, and audits environmental management systems in line with ISO 14001, the globally recognised standard for environmental best practice.
We help organisations build frameworks that improve efficiency, reduce risks, and demonstrate commitment to sustainability. Through regular auditing, compliance checks, and performance reviews, CPE ensures operations remain aligned with evolving regulations, stakeholder expectations, and long-term environmental goals.
