Development projects must manage impacts of their activities onto the environment through an Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) process to ensure sustainable development. Baseline and monitoring data is key to achieving this process. Each development project is unique in one way or the other and hence the need to understand circumstances of each project and ensure appropriate data is collected, analyzed and interpreted to aid decision making before, during and after project implementation.

The project must also be embraced by local authorities and other key stakeholders, and one way is by involving them in the process and demonstrating credibility of data collected to aid impact assessment and management. Where relevant, the process should also be in alignment with international best practices such as IFC Performance Standards, IPIECA guidelines and World Bank safeguards policies. BSL helps you collect credible data as well as undertake an ecological impact assessment of your project including monitoring and evaluation of the project.
