Compliance Monitoring

Our Approach

On-site BNG compliance doesn't stop once permission is granted — it requires ongoing monitoring and reporting. We help developers ensure that created or enhanced habitats continue to meet their legal obligations over time.

Our monitoring and reporting service ensures your biodiversity gains stay on track and legally protected.

Our Range Of services

  • Annual Site Inspections: We carry out scheduled site visits to assess habitat condition against the Biodiversity Metric targets — identifying early signs of underperformance or degradation to ensure long-term compliance.

    Reporting for LPAs: We prepare formal monitoring reports tailored to the requirements of Local Planning Authorities, including condition assessments, photographic evidence, and summary recommendations.

    Remedial Guidance: If a habitat is not achieving its expected condition or trajectory, we provide clear, actionable advice to help bring it back into compliance — reducing risk of enforcement or reputational damage.

    Ongoing Advisory Support: We remain available to interpret planning conditions, liaise with authorities, and advise on adaptive management measures as site needs evolve.
