by Rebecca Walker — April 10, 2009—CH2M HILL, a global full-service engineering, procurement, construction, and operations firm, has been named one of the top leaders in climate change consulting in the United States, according to research from Verdantix, an independent research firm focused on climate change, carbon markets and business sustainability.
The Verdantix Green Quadrant research project was a ground-breaking analysis of the U.S. climate change consulting market. It applied 56 evaluation criteria to assess 19 consulting and professional service firms. Firms were evaluated on their capabilities including proven climate change/sustainability expertise, market momentum, thought leadership, and ability to connect and resolve multiple issues. The study cited seven firms as leaders, but Verdantix indicated that CH2M HILL stood out even among these leaders because of the breadth and depth of its capabilities and proven track record.
“Over the past 60 years, CH2M HILL has developed our engineering and technological experience that allows us to bring sound, science-based solutions to our clients,” said Lee McIntire, President and CEO, CH2M HILL. “We are pleased that the Verdantix study validates that we understand the carbon challengefrom strategy development, to technical consulting and project implementation, to market opportunity assessment.”
