Our business areas
We bring our client’s vision to reality to energise environments and generate maximum value for communities, nationally and internationally. We are strategic advisors involved throughout the development and delivery lifecycle of unique programmes. Through helping revitalise urban and rural areas we have enabled many opportunities and economic growth for years to come.
For over five decades we have worked nationally and internationally on cities, levelling up towns, universities, roads, railways and airports. Through a combination of creating business cases, strategic advice, planning and programme management we have been able to reawaken and bring renewed life to many communities.
We respect our planet and are committed to supporting the delivery of a sustainable and viable future. The need for action is more urgent than ever; Nichols helps clients realise projects and policies that will help to deliver decarbonisation goals. Our team of outstanding specialists understand the landscape and challenges of environmental issues through our vast experience.
We have the knowledge and expertise to help across the entire environmental arena, providing navigation through every stage of the project and programme lifecycle, from establishing the case for investment to strategic management of infrastructure delivery.
We bring vision and strategic direction to major transport programmes, enabling clients to deliver creative transport solutions that leave a legacy. Having worked on iconic road, rail and aviation programmes around the world for over 50 years, we have a deep holistic understanding of the full lifecycle of a transport system from project inception to long-term running and maintenance.
We offer our expertise at every stage of the programme. This whole lifecycle perspective enables us to understand the many interfaces within transport programmes, and influence planning by accommodating key features such as systems integration and stakeholder relationship management.
