About Us

Our mission is to tackle each client’s specific environmental liability with a team of specialists hand-picked to critically assess risk, strategize cogent remedies, and realize favorable outcomes.

A structure built around the problem

QES provides practical strategies for navigating environmental liability with a unique business structure. Our in-house Core Team collaborates seamlessly with an established network of technical specialists, our Extended Team.

This structure allows QES to assemble technically appropriate project teams for each client’s challenges while controlling overhead costs, a saving passed to clients through greater efficiency and competitive rates.

How successful outcomes start

Successful project outcomes begin with an understanding of stakeholder drivers, timeframe sensitivities, and the need for collaboration with legal, public relations or other specialty teams. That high-altitude perspective is essential to developing practical strategies for navigating environmental liability.
