About EDI
How can we help you?
EDI focuses on living things and where they live. We have been in business for three decades and you can find us in nine locations in western and northern Canada.
We have a team of around 150 experienced specialists, including biologists, hydrologists, scientists, and planners with expertise you can trust to work on your project. We provide practical, environmental solutions and services, focusing on aquatic and terrestrial sciences, water resources and wetlands, terrestrial ecosystem mapping, and environmental assessment, planning, monitoring and management.
Why practical? — because that’s the kind of result you can do something with.
It drives us to stay focused on our clients’ needs.
It drives us towards effective results.
It means that when we talk with our clients, we listen.
It means that if we’re nearby, we’ll stop by your project and take that sample you need.
Most importantly, it means that we take aquatic and terrestrial biology out of the theoretical world and put it to work for you on the ground (or in the water). And, at the end of it all, we won’t hand you a report that calls for more reports. You’ll have actionable plans and hands-on management to keep your project moving forward.
It’s an approach we call Down to Earth Biology
Talk to us today about what it could mean for you and your project.
Down to Earth Biology
Sensible, credible, focused, realistic. These are just a few words that describe our team of biologists, scientists, and planners – a team committed to environmental management and the practical application of aquatic and terrestrial science. We’ve fostered these traits for three decades resulting in a strong culture of service delivery and customer experience that is best defined as ‘Down to Earth Biology’.
Focused on what matters
Knowing what not to focus on is just as important as knowing what to focus on. Our experience enables us to distinguish between the two so that your dollars are concentrated where it matters, not scattered around the target.
Experts you can trust
Our expertise starts with our relationships. By getting to know you and your project needs, our knowledge of aquatic and terrestrial science is applied directly to your vision. The result?… focused, practical advice from a team of experts you can trust.
Scientists you can talk to
Want to know what’s happening on the ground or in the water? Our integrated team approach means that when you have a question, you’ll be in contact with a team member who actually works on the project. And, one who can answer it in a language you can understand.
Practical science
Our competitive advantage is achieving success for our clients by taking aquatic and terrestrial science out of the theoretical and putting it to work. We provide actionable plans that keep projects moving forward – not reports that call for more reports.
