Corporate Philosophy
SPECTRA’s business
philosophy is based on a commitment to provide quality consulting
services that don’t merely “get the job done,” but create value for
the client. SPECTRA
continually looks for and promotes tactical approaches to solving
environmental problems and becomes partners with its clients during
this process. SPECTRA’s
success in this highly competitive field is testimony to the
efficacy of applying this business philosophy to its clients and
projects. SPECTRA
measures its success in terms of the significant repeat business
with existing clients.
SPECTRA’s success is based on its five
corporate strengths:
·
Owners as Project Managers – SPECTRA is unique
in the field in that all project work is personally directed by the
company’s two principals.
Together, Robert C. LaFleur and John H. Shafer, P.E. have
over 60 years experience in the fields of mining, minerals,
transportation and civil engineering and hazardous and solid waste
management. They provide the hands-on
guidance needed to manage clients’ environmental and engineering
needs.
·
Technical Competence – SPECTRA’s technical
competence consists of professionals in integrated disciplines
including: geology, hydrogeology, ecology, mine planning,
environmental permitting, civil, structural and environmental
engineering and computer-aided drafting and design. These resources benefit
SPECTRA’s clients through our in-house ability to assemble highly
competent project teams and demonstrated ability to take advantage
of a multi-discipline approach to a project. SPECTRA’s principals and
senior staff average over 25 years of experience in their respective
professional fields.
This experience comes from work in, and for, the public and
private sectors, as well as in academia and industry.
·
Innovation and Entrepreneurship – SPECTRA is
committed to creating the greatest value for our clients. Our professionals provide
quality consulting/engineering services and, because of our size and
philosophy, SPECTRA looks for and is able to suggest and implement
innovative solutions and strategies to solving environmental
problems. At times, SPECTRA may form partnerships with clients,
sometimes resulting in unique methods of providing and being
reimbursed for its services.
·
Client Advocacy – SPECTRA’s approach to
addressing complex environmental issues and projects is to
strategically manage and tactically control the permitting, design
approval and/or regulatory approval process. Careful management of the
approval process is key to obtaining permits and approvals needed in
support of projects.
SPECTRA staff pride themselves on being true advocates for
their clients and working diligently to represent their best
interests before regulators, municipalities, investors and the
public.
