Insolvency & Turnaround
Fast clarity on site risk for administrators, receivers and turnaround specialists.
The Challenge
When you're appointed to a distressed business or property, environmental risk can derail disposals, complicate trading strategies and create personal liability exposure. You need fast, defensible assessment to inform your decisions about trade-on, sale or wind-down.
But most consultants are too slow, too academic or too expensive for insolvency timeframes and budgets.
How We Help
We provide rapid, practical environmental advice matched to insolvency decision-making:
- Fast turnarounds (3-5 days) aligned with your appointment timelines
- Clear risk ratings you can table to stakeholders and counterparties
- Plain English that creditors, buyers and courts can understand
- Pragmatic advice on managing risk within your statutory obligations
- Fixed-fee structures so you know the cost before engaging
Common Scenarios
Manufacturing / Industrial Insolvencies
You've been appointed to a manufacturer or industrial operator with visible contamination, chemical storage or legacy environmental issues. You need to understand cleanup liability, regulatory exposure and whether trade-on increases your personal risk.
We typically deliver: Rapid Site Scan to assess immediate risk, followed by Phase 1 or Phase 2 ESA if disposal or trade-on proceeds.
Property Disposals
You're selling property as part of asset realization but prospective buyers are raising environmental concerns. You need defensible assessment to support marketing, negotiate terms or adjust pricing.
We typically deliver: Phase 1 ESA for marketing pack, with option to upgrade to Phase 2 if buyer due diligence requires it.
Trading Through Distress
You're trading the business through administration or receivership and need to manage environmental compliance without derailing operations or incurring unnecessary cost.
We typically deliver: Fractional Environmental Support providing compliance oversight and regulatory liaison during trading period.
