Overview:
EVS is an environmental technology company that captures, stores and displays environmental data to produce actionable insights in real time. Their products are very user friendly, meaning the user doesn’t have to be an expert just to use it. EVS also provides a stakeholder platform to manage stakeholder engagement.
EVS provides technology to monitor air, noise, vibration, dust, water and ouder to the following sectors:
- Airports
- Mining
- Construction
- Waste water
- Industrial
- Cities
Although EVS sell their own instrumentation, their technology is device agnostic.
Notes:
Proven resilience in revenue from airport contracts as they must continue to monitor noise levels to comply with regulatory requirements
Have various industry leaders as clients including BHP, Rio Tinto, Glencore, LAX and Heathrow
Globally diverse clientbase over a variety of products
Genuine leaders in their niche
The focus on environmental impact is increasing which may lead to stricter regulatory requirements and/or public pressure for companies to reduce their impact. This could mean a greater emphasis on environmental monitoring
EVS products can provide real time and predictive data to avoid incidents and community complaints (quick anecdotal note - A complaint can take a lot of man hours to close out and environmental incidents can take many many months to resolve, putting a halt to works. Which means potentially large fines, delay costs, missed KPI’s and other indirect costs)
Provides end-to-end solutions over a variety of sectors
Management have made smart moves by acquiring EMS Bruel & Kjaer, AqMB and negotiating the Sewex licencing agreement which has greatly increased their sales outlook
