The world is more environmentally concerned than ever. Institutions, such as the US Environmental Protection Agency, focus on making sure developments and advancements do not come at the cost of nature. To support their mission, companies on a small and large scale need to assess the impact of their operations on the environment. Applied Technology & Management Inc., a coastal, marine, environmental and water resources consulting firm, is one of the companies that works closely with the developmental enhancements and their consequences. As part of the portfolio of Andrew Farkas’ company Island Capital Group, it assesses environmental impacts of proposed development projects.

Applied Technology & Management Inc. was founded in 1984 and has since been investigating mitigation plans to supply its customers with ecologically-balanced and long-term alternatives in order to tightly monitor, decrease or even eliminate potential impacts of future developments. The company’s services do not only cover the United States, but they also reach as far as Dubai. With nine offices, approximately one hundred professionals and involvement in over 300 marina projects, the ATM’s Coastal and Marine division has become an industry leader in its field. It is a highly valuable asset to Island Capital Group CEO Andrew Farkas with its high knowledge and specialization in marina and waterfront development.
