Sustainability is the act of balancing the environmental, social and economic needs of the built and natural environments for present and future generations.

We offer our clients the best possible economic, social and environmental value by delivering integrated sustainable solutions.

Balanced sustainable solutions result in sound choices and decisions that:

  • are resource sensitive
  • provide private and public sector opportunities for economic growth and development
  • create quality and diverse places where people can live, grow and flourish
  • are socially equitable
  • consider the broad context of each decision

HDR's Sustainable Solutions Program includes an internal Corporate Sustainable Initiative, a Climate Change Initiative, and services in the following areas of expertise: building design, mobility, water resources, energy management, waste management, community, and economic and environmental modeling.
