Impact Assessment
Its contents, together with any comments, must be taken into account by the competent authority (eg local planning authority) before it may grant consent. IDOM is able to undertake many aspects including advising developers on screening and scoping of EIA and can coordinate production of the EIA with many of the disciplines undertaken in-house to ensure a coherent end product.

Monitoring and Control
Air quality assessments are frequently undertaken as part of planning applications or Environmental Impact Assessments and can include background air quality studies, assessment of air quality impact from particular proposals and providing mitigation advice. Noise monitoring is also frequently required as part of planning application procedures and we can provide anything from basic data acquisition to detailed interpretations.

Noise and Vibration
The IDOM acoustic team provide bespoke acoustic measurement and modelling in accordance with relevant publications and guidance to deliver planning support, environmental impact assessment, reassurance monitoring, and good acoustic design. Noise and vibration measurement is undertaken using Class 1 precision sound level meters, and seismographs capable of measuring both Peak Particle Velocity (PPV) and Vibration Dose Value (VDV).
Real-time measurement of both noise and vibration can be undertaken with options for alerts to ensure that pre-determined levels are not exceeded at sensitive receptor locations. We work alongside local authorities to ensure that noise or vibration issues and conditions are met and discharged.

- Baseline environmental noise monitoring
- Real-time site noise monitoring for demolition and construction processes with telemetry and alerts

Sustainability
IDOM considers that sustainability is the key imperative driving all of its operations and seeks at all times to review and improve its overall performance in this aspect.
We believe that the choice is not between new construction and protection of the environment, it is between progress and stagnation.
We provide a range of integrated services to support the planning, design, construction, and operation of built environment and infrastructure projects.
