Federal Planning and Environmental Services

WSP has partnered with federal clients across the U.S. and around the globe to deliver some of the largest planning programs worldwide, from managing the largest ecosystem restoration plan in the U.S. to developing an urban infrastructure master plan in India.

Balancing Infrastructure with Communities and Environment

As the cornerstone of any project, effective planning ensures that infrastructure is harmonized with the communities that surround it, and that balance is maintained between the natural and built environments.

Federal master planning must reflect the full spectrum of users, while adhering to strict guidelines to ensure safety, security and the flexibility to meet current and future needs. WSP has led master planning efforts at numerous facilities, including hospitals, administrative and academic campuses and military installations. We have also delivered integrated planning services for program execution plans, area development plans, outdoor recreation plans, building upgrade programs, base consolidation and relocation programs, and base realignment and closure programs.
