Sustainability Goals and Initiatives

GKW Consult is strongly engaged in sustainable projects and initiatives. For example, the company signed a contract in July 2024 for the World Bank-funded Design, Management, and Supervision Consulting (DMSC) with the government of Assam, India. This project includes support for the expansion of existing schools, the construction of multipurpose flood shelters and related works, as well as infrastructure improvement and the development of master plans for a central training institute[3].

Another significant project is the contract funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for the Sustainability, Hygiene, and Resilience project of the Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC-SHARP), which will run for over 84 months. Here, the GKW Consult team will assist the municipal administration in conducting feasibility analyses, preparing detailed project reports, tendering and contract management, construction supervision of wastewater and drainage systems, as well as social, environmental, and gender-specific due diligence assessments[3].

Current Developments

GKW Consult has recently completed the full acquisition by the GFA Consulting Group, enabling the expansion of the service portfolio in the areas of water supply, wastewater treatment, and disposal. This transaction was supported by Ebner Stolz in a multidisciplinary manner in the areas of Legal, Tax, and Financial[1].

With the recent acquisition and new projects, GKW Consult confirms its position as one of the leading independent consulting firms for environmental technology and infrastructure worldwide.
