Our Consultancy
Coastal Research and Modelling Services Ltd
Our Consultancy
Whether your project involves strategic planning, environmental assessment, infrastructure development, or risk management, CRMS is committed to delivering world-class consultancy services that are both innovative and pragmatic.
Introduction
Consultancy work for clients and projects identified here has been undertaken during employment with ABPmer (2010-2014) and Mott MacDonald (2014-2024). These roles required solutions to complex, multidisciplinary challenges requiring a robust understanding of regulatory frameworks, technical methodologies, and stakeholder engagement strategies.
The CRMS approach is grounded in proven methodologies and informed by years of hands-on experience delivering high-value solutions to public and private-sector clients. In addition to our in-house capabilities, we maintain a trusted network of specialist collaborators—spanning engineering, ecology, geoscience, and policy—allowing us to assemble bespoke teams tailored to your specific needs.
At CRMS, safeguarding client confidentiality and ensuring the integrity of data and information systems are foundational to our consultancy practice. We recognise that our clients entrust us with sensitive information, and we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of privacy, security, and digital resilience.
Our confidentiality promise
Strict confidentiality agreements govern all client engagements. We ensure that proprietary data, project documentation, and communications are handled with discretion and stored securely. Access to client information is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis, and all team members are trained in confidentiality best practices.
We take data and information security seriously
CRMS employs robust data protection measures aligned with international standards such as ISO/IEC 27001. Our systems are protected by multi-layered security protocols including encryption, secure authentication, and continuous monitoring. We regularly audit our data-handling procedures to ensure compliance with relevant data protection legislation, including the GDPR, where applicable.
Our IT infrastructure and systems
Our IT infrastructure is cloud-based, scalable, and resilient, designed to support secure collaboration across distributed teams. We utilise enterprise-grade platforms for document management, communication, and project delivery, all configured to ensure data integrity and traceability. Regular updates, vulnerability assessments, and disaster recovery planning are integral to our IT governance framework.
By combining technical rigour with a culture of trust and accountability, CRMS ensures that client data is protected at every stage of engagement. We are committed to transparency, and we welcome client audits or inquiries into our data and security practices as part of our collaborative ethos.
