What Our Environmental Risk Information Customers Say

“Thanks to Scriva, a simple Phase I ESA that used to take a day or two can now be done in half the time. The ability to make it my own report and the productivity boost have made a significant impact on our workflow. The upfront work, including adding libraries, repeat fields, and ensuring language and format consistency, not only saves hours but also guarantees that every report maintains the same professional appearance and content.  We are now able to accomplish more in significantly less time while guaranteeing the uniformity and high quality of each report we deliver.”

ERIS reports are designed for each province as they respond to local standards for such project. ERIS provides flexibility as they offer a wide range of search information that can be purchase on an “À la carte basis”. Hence, it is possible to purchase a search report that will contain all mandatory search documentation for a particular province and complete it with supplemental documentation for more complex sites as necessary.

Clifford Eng AMEC Foster Wheeler
In our experience the ERIS Report is usually an essential component to a cost effective and complete Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. It provides a critical range of information that is necessary to conduct a proper historical review of the risks associated with a site in a way that is more cost effective than searching each data set independently. The order of an ERIS Report is a simple process that provides a quality product in a timely manner. Further, the ERIS Staff are very helpful and responsive when specialty products are required to meet unique site and project needs.
