Uley,Gloucs., UK: A new partnership has been announced by Scott Wilson and Juniper consultancies. They have agreed to collaborate in the waste management and biomass renewables consulting sector, providing a broader range of advice and support to clients in this rapidly evolving field.
Juniper holds a leading position in technology risk assessment which should dovetail nicely into Scott Wilson’s broad range of expertise in engineering, environmental and planning specialisms.
The two organisations see considerable synergies between their individual areas of specialization. Juniper says it is a leading independent analyst of novel process technologies that are increasingly being marketed as ‘better’ solutions for recovering resources from waste.
Scott Wilson, the international multi-disciplinary consultancy group, offers a broad range of integrated professional services including planning and licensing support, engineering design work and environmental impact assessments.

The new partnership will primarily focus on the UK market and offer a range of services such as:
advice to project developers on technology selection and risk mitigation; due diligence reviews for banks and private equity funds; feasibility studies and techno-commercial assessments and strategy advice to corporate and other clients.
Juniper says that both companies will continue to advise clients separately and will only work together when the client wants to use both organisations.
Joe Schwager, Managing Director of Juniper said:
“Our clients increasingly want more than just advice on technology. They want our specialist knowledge but also practical advice on site related issues and project implementation. This new alliance with Scott Wilson will allow us to provide, jointly, that broader range of services.”
Barry Gore, Technical Director at Scott Wilson, commented:
“By combining our expertise, Scott Wilson and Juniper can provide individual clients with a comprehensive waste project multi-disciplinary resource that can be used to assess specific risks and uncertainties as they move towards, and beyond, contract completion”.
