Why are you a part of CDM Smith? The company provides a collaborative work environment with leading experts and opportunities to participate in innovative research and development to deliver the best outcome to the client and affected stakeholders. For example, CDM Smith’s Sustainability Analytics R&D team is committed to the ongoing integration of triple bottom line (people – planet – profit) models and approaches under a single framework to support our clients in comprehensively and holistically assessing beneficial and negative sustainability impacts of technologies and management strategies. This cross-discipline team’s mission is to evaluate and report financial costs and relative sustainability of all our projects aligned with our client values.
What’s a project or accomplishment that you’re particularly proud of, and why? Right now, Responsible Steel certification for a confidential steel manufacturing client. It is our first environmental, social, governance (ESG) reporting project where we truly mobilized the Sustainability Discipline to engage subject matter experts across multiple disciplines and practices. CDM Smith’s role was to establish the baseline condition of our client’s processes, procedures, and activities against nearly 400 evaluation criteria, determine suitable next steps based on the initial assessment, and then move through the site certification process. We worked with stakeholders to determine improvement plans and then collaborated to develop a decarbonization strategy, including scope 1-3 emissions accounting, an air emissions reduction plan, a water stewardship plan, a biodiversity management plan, and stakeholder engagement plan. This project proves we can be a sustainability service provider to any client.
