Nature strategy, built on the most advanced evidence in the market

Frameworks are tightening, capital is moving, and boards want proof rather than proxies. We combine expert advisory with environmental DNA (eDNA),bioacoustics and satellite remote sensing to turn nature into decisions yourboard, auditors and investors can stand behind.

Strategy built on measured evidence, not estimates

Most nature advice still runs on modelled estimates and literature reviews. We built ouradvisory on primary, site-verified biological data, then made it repeatable at portfolio scale. That combination of ecological science and decision-grade data is what sets our work apart.

Primary data, not proxies

eDNA, bioacoustics and remote sensing give you measured species and ecosystem evidence, not a deskestimate.

Science that sets the standard

Our team co-authors the methodologies and standards the market is adopting.

Built to be defended

Audit-ready data trails and repeatable methods mean disclosures hold up to regulators, investors and auditors.

Our advisory expertise

Behind every engagement is a multidisciplinary team that spans field science, data and commercial strategy.
That range is what takes a client from a raw ecological signal to a board-ready decision.

Speak to our Nature Strategy team

Five service areas. One connected evidence base. Enter wherever you need to

Each service area draws on the same underlying NatureIntelligence Platform, so a supply chain screen, a site assessment and a corporate disclosureall speak to each other rather than sitting in silos.

Across all five areas, we deliver value on four fronts: risk reduction, opportunity and value creation, impact management, and biodiversity performance.

1. Framework & regulatory advisory

Navigate a complex regulatory environment and turn nature disclosure into commercial advantage.

Framework readiness & disclosure

We benchmark you against the frameworks that matter (TNFD, CSRD ESRS E4, GRI, CDP), map the gaps and shape decision-useful, defensible disclosures, so you know where you stand and turn reporting into a credible market signal.

Standards & due diligence alignment

We align your evidence to the regimes that gate operations and finance, from EU supply chain law (EUDR, CSDDD) to project finance standards (IFC PS6, Equator Principles) and sector bodies (ICMM, IPIECA), so you meet the bar and keep market access.

Integrated evidence programme

We design one monitoring and evidence programme that feeds many disclosures at once, so overlapping requirements are satisfied without duplicating cost.

2. Site level services

Turn a single site into verified, financeable evidence.Advisory based on NatureMetrics' Nature Intelligence Platform capabilities: Habitat Insights, Ecosystem Insights, Species Insights

Site risk & Critical Habitat Assessment

We assess site-level nature risk and whether critical habitat is present, so operations in sensitive areas are de-risked early and lender requirements are met before they become blockers.

Mitigation hierarchy & offsetting

We apply the mitigation hierarchy (avoid, minimise, restore, offset), deliver No Net Loss and Net Gain, and identify ecologically equivalent offset sites, so impacts are managed in the right order and compensation is credible.

Biodiversity Action Plans

We design and help deliver practical BAPs, turning obligations and ambitions into a clear plan of action on the ground.

Monitoring, reporting & verification

We measure and verify change over time with eDNA, bioacoustics and remote sensing, so performance is proven rather than assumed, with bespoke tools where your workflow needs them.

Biodiversity units, verified performance & finance

We quantify and verify biodiversity performance and provide the site-level evidence green and sustainability-linked finance requires, so nature becomes tradable, defensible value.

3. Landscape level services

Plan and value nature across whole landscapes, not just fence lines. Advisory based on NatureMetrics' Nature Intelligence Platform capabilities: Habitat Insights, Ecosystem Insights, Species Insights

Integrated landscape & conservation planning

We coordinate nature action across assets and stakeholders and target conservation where it delivers the greatest measurable gain, so interventions reinforce each other rather than duplicate or conflict.

Ecosystem service valuation & cost-benefit analysis

We put a defensible economic value on the services a landscape provides and weigh intervention options, so capital is directed to where it pays back most.

Mitigation hierarchy & offsetting at landscape scale

We sequence avoid, minimise, restore and offset across the whole landscape and locate like-for-like offset sites, so compensation is ecologically credible and defensible.

4. Supply chain services

Secure supply and de-risk sourcing from farm to finished product.Advisory based on NatureMetrics' Nature Intelligence Platform capabilities: Habitat Insights, Ecosystem Insights, Species Insights, Global Nature Risk

Risk & commodity exposure assessment

We map nature risk and opportunity across your supply chain and by crop and commodity, giving visibility where you have least and showing which inputs carry the most exposure to cost and continuity.

Deforestation monitoring & traceability

We trace sourcing to origin and monitor for deforestation, so you can meet EUDR and prove clean supply chains with evidence, not assurances.

Securing resilient supply

We help protect long-term access to the natural resources you depend on and develop more resilient, nature-positive sourcing.

Financing mechanisms for resilience

We design financing approaches that fund resilience across the chain, sharing the cost and the value of nature-positive sourcing.

5. Corporate & Financial Services

Set direction from the top and build nature into strategy, governance and capital decisions, for corporates and for the banks, insurers and investors financing them.

Assessment, benchmarking & risk screening

We screen nature risk across your operations or investment portfolio and benchmark against peers, so boards, risk teams and investment committees have an honest baseline and know where effort and capital matter most.

Strategy, targets, policy & governance

We set a clear, credible direction and embed nature into strategy, policy and governance and, for financial institutions, into lending, underwriting and investment decisions, so ambition is realistic and becomes part of how the business runs.

Reporting & natural capital accounting

We design investor-ready, TNFD-aligned disclosure and account for nature in financial terms, so corporates and financial institutions can report and price nature alongside other assets.

Training & upskilling

We build lasting capability across strategy, risk and investment teams, so nature work continues without permanent reliance on external support.

Retainer-based advisory

We provide senior advisory on call, giving you flexible expert support as needs evolve without carrying full-time cost.

Independent verification and expert review

Where you need an arm's-length opinion, our scientists provide independent verification and technical review of nature data, methodologies and claims. Validate your own position ahead of disclosure, review a supplier's evidence, or give investors and auditors confidence in a third party's numbers.

Independent verification

Technical review of data, claims, methodologies and monitoring design.

Assurance & second opinion

Review ahead of disclosure or audit including third-party evidence.
