Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)

Delivering on nature – just another of our green specialities.

Achieving Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) doesn’t have to be complex. Our BNG team at GVA provide clear, compliant and practical support to help you meet your BNG requirements while achieving genuinely positive outcomes for our natural world.

Whether you’re a local authority, highways body or developer working to tight project timelines, we bring reliable ecological expertise, right through from baseline survey and purchase of BNG units off site (a market solution for when BNG targets cannot be achieved on site), to long-term habitat management.
