WE BEGIN WITH A COMPREHENSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE DECISION LANDSCAPE

  • Knowing the scientific, social, economic, policy, and regulatory aspects of the decision enables early identification of critical issues as well as areas of common ground.

STAKEHOLDER VALUES PROVIDE THE FOUNDATION

  • Neptune uses graphical, interactive structured decision making (SDM) tools to “translate” values and preferences into decision objectives.

WE EXPLICITLY QUANTIFY SOURCES OF UNCERTAINTY

  • Quantifying uncertainty allows for transparent characterization of components of the decision framework that may benefit from additional data or modeling.

WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY USED OUR SDM PROCESS ACROSS MULTIPLE SECTORS

  • Neptune specializes in complex regulatory and stakeholder environments where difficult decisions need to be made, from hazardous waste sites to feedlot management.
