Environmental Management Support, Inc. (EMS) is a small professional services consulting firm specializing in bridging the gap among scientists and engineers, governmental policy makers, regulated communities and the public. We provide a wide array of professional services, with a focus on technical research, policy and organizational development, communications and outreach, and information management. For more than 35 years, EMS has strived to create real value for our clients and to be recognized by our customers and our competitors as the standard for integrity, responsiveness, efficiency, and creativity in environmental sciences, policy, public outreach, and information management. Since 1983, we have assisted federal agencies in developing, implementing, analyzing, and evaluating environmental laws and policies; in preparing training and public involvement strategies and products; and in bringing these products, programs, and ideas to the public in innovative ways. Virtually all of our projects come as repeat business from satisfied customers. We are different from many other consulting firms because we are intentionally small, we are selective, and we assign a workforce of experienced, exceptionally qualified personnel to meet our clients’ needs. This benefits our clients through “institutional memory” and the reassurance that comes from knowing that the same people who start a project are likely to finish it.
