In order for a project to be successful, it must cover three major elements:
The project must be economic - it must deliver a return to its stakeholders
The project must be feasible - it must have a process or technology that works and be able to gain the necessary approvals and permits
The project must be politically viable - the proper laws and regulations must be in place and with ample public support
Oftentimes, the first two categories are the primary focus and as we’ve seen over the past few years, political opposition has derailed the projects. Armature can assist with developing an effective external affairs, lobbying, communications and outreach plan that compliments the technical and economic scopes of the project.
