HOLISTIC ENGINEERING

The second critical characteristics of HELM is the source of the firm's name. Holistic Engineering and Land Management describes the philosophy that differentiates HELM from the broader civil engineering community. We believe that the design of land connected projects needs to recognize and embrace natural processes, therefore we propose using a holistic approach to solve problems at the root. A holistic approach recognizes that there is a dynamic relationship between multitudes of factors, chief among them are hydrology, geomorphology and ecology. Traditional civil engineering has not fully considered the crucial role ecology plays in this process and has neglected ecology in most design processes. We believe that this needs to change... Every Project is Managed Professionally and Holistically.
