ERM created a customized program management tool called EnSite for a major telecommunications company to efficiently and consistently manage their National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance program. EnSite standardized the process for completing over 20,000 NEPA reports from multiple consulting firms to comply with FCC regulations. Over time, EnSite was enhanced through user and regulatory feedback, growing to support over 1,700 users and hosting over 1 terabyte of documents. ERM has since repurposed EnSite, now called HIVE, to support their own NEPA consulting work and continue improving it with new automation and workflow tools.
