RWDI’s 50-year legacy is built on finding innovative solutions to complex engineering challenges. Our performance-centered approach combines innovative thinking, collaborative problem-solving, and a passion for expanding the boundaries of the possible to achieve results. We’ve built a team of over 800 engineers, scientists, and sustainability specialists over 30 offices across North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. With deep technical expertise, we drive success on ambitious building, industry, and infrastructure projects – enhancing performance, resiliency, and efficiency. Our goal is simple: to help clients overcome any design or operational challenge to meet ambitious goals while ensuring projects exist in harmony with their natural environment. We help clients tackle complex challenges in the built environment by combining innovative thinking, collaborative problem-solving, and a passion for expanding the boundaries of the possible. RWDI has added many dimensions over the years as we’ve evolved to mirror the scope and diversity of our clients’ changing needs. Every initiative we launch and every new direction we explore reflects a clear understanding of why we’re in business. The diverse projects that clients bring to us all begin with the same fundamental question: Can this be done? Is it technically feasible… cost-effective… sustainable over the long term? Will it have a beneficial impact on the people who use it and the environment in which it is built? Is this project, or some unique element within it, even possible? The answers tend to be complicated; there are always many moving parts to examine and interdependencies to analyze. And in the course of determining whether something is doable, we often discover an entirely new approach to how such things can be done. What makes us Unique? Whether we’re helping to execute a design no one has attempted before… or ensuring people can live and work comfortably in a challenging environment… or meticulously completing the due diligence of regulatory compliance… we consistently demonstrate RWDI’s trademark obsession with detail. We fine-tune the data and get the nuances exactly right, and then we translate that technical rigor into concrete, sustainable value. Our belief in true collaboration Many firms will tell you they listen closely to your goals and concerns. And it may be true – when they’re first engaged. At RWDI, we maintain that vital dialogue throughout your project as we test, learn, and refine our shared understanding. The result is a truly collaborative partnership in which we adapt and innovate together, sharing ideas and tracking the measures of progress with transparency, accountability, and mutual trust. Our entrepreneurial spirit A firm committed to redefining possible has to be as nimble, responsive, and creatively disruptive as a startup. We encourage all members of the RWDI team to embrace the ingenuity of our founders as we constantly rethink the criteria for success. And when we grow, it's not to get bigger, but to be better: we only invest in added capabilities that complement what we already do and open up new opportunities for excellence. RWDI is committed to upholding and strengthening all dimensions of sustainability—social, economic and environmental – in our work on behalf of clients and in our own operations. As consultants in environmental engineering, we promote best practices in our clients’ projects and throughout their areas of impact. And as we help to create hospitable and inclusive spaces where people live, work, and interact, we’re keenly aware of our responsibility to foster social and economic well-being in surrounding communities.
