Welcome to DMS…

Decision Making for Sustainability is based in Bristol and conducts independent consultancy projects principally, but not exclusively, for the renewable energy and waste management industries.

We empower our clients by providing the necessary information, data and analysis they need to make decisions on how to minimise environmental impact, maximise revenues, respect society and meet legislative requirements.

The scope of our projects range from energy auditing to strategic asset development plans at the regional level. Our clients are as diverse as the issues they face and come from the public and private sectors with turnovers ranging from thousands to millions of pounds.
