What guides us…
ERC provides clients with unsurpassed levels of service with our guiding principles:
We established our environmental division in 1991 in Houston, Texas and later expanded into Austin and the Dallas-Fort Worth areas. We have successfully served the private and public sector ever since. In 2008, we added a construction division, allowing us to offer comprehensive, synergistic services to our clients.
Educational
An increasing number of educational leaders identify the challenges associated with aging and expanding facilities as one of the top change drivers in the field, exceeded only by insufficient financial resources, technological change and changing student demographics. Insufficient facilities are also considered among the top threats to the success of higher education. ERC’s ability to offer synergistic solutions consisting of both environmental and engineering services allows our education sector clients to establish a strong future for both their facilities and students.
Healthcare
Healthcare facilities must pay particular care and attention to indoor air concerns. Patients with pre-existing health problems undergoing treatment and those with suppressed immune systems are extremely susceptible to indoor air exposures. The assessment of indoor air quality (IAQ) risks in the healthcare setting is a complex and challenging issue for building owners and facility managers. ERC’s commitment to embracing trending technologies in both environmental engineering and construction allows us to successfully navigate the complex and sensitive environments found in today’s healthcare settings.
Financial
Project management in institutional and financial environments can be challenging, particularly when overseeing construction and environmental work. Maintaining security is a significant concern, especially protecting sensitive data and preserving physical security. These environments typically generate a great deal of commercial and personal traffic, so it is imperative that disruptions are held to an absolute minimum. ERC is well versed in managing the many issues that can affect the success of these projects.
Industrial
Safety and industrial hygiene are among the top concerns relating to environmental engineering and construction projects in this sector. Project management in the industrial setting comes with a high degree of hazard and risk. ERC’s role in industrial project management supports the client with providing a safe place to work, developing safety guidelines and providing educational awareness surrounding environmental concerns and safety. ERC’s services include environmental site assessments and investigations, remedial design and implementation, industrial hygiene and occupational safety and regulatory compliance.
Governmental
The very nature of government environmental engineering introduces challenges typically not encountered in other industries, such as: work force considerations, time constraints, safety and security, and governmental regulations. Along with increasing environmental and safety laws, there is greater regulation through the construction codes and licensing requirements. ERC’s ability to provide environmental consulting in tandem with construction expertise provides our governmental clients with comprehensive, effective solutions to their project challenges.
Retail
When embarking on construction and environmental engineering in the retail sector, priority considerations to address and manage include: safety, eliminating disruptions to surrounding businesses, and minimizing client’s downtime. ERC brings over twenty years of experience in operating within retail environments, managing both construction and environmental projects.
