When projects reach a point of impasse, CLF Ventures works closely with the involved parties to resolve the issue and move the negotiations towards closure. We are adept at fostering trust and legitimacy, facilitating dialogue and aligning stakeholder interests to drive projects to a successful outcome. We un-stick stuck projects.
Objective Data Analysis and Certification
When negotiations reach a state of impasse due to contested information presented as part of the proceedings, CLF Ventures provides all stakeholders with an objective analysis of the data. Instead of dueling experts, our team of environmental professionals and a selective team of external, nationally-recognized specialists works to resolve data disputes. As a result, credibility is restored among stakeholders, thereby allowing the project to move forward.
Stakeholder Interest Alignment and Issue Closure
At CLF Ventures, we have extensive experience identifying and reaching out to diverse groups of stakeholders and opening lines of communication to bring about innovative solutions. CLF Ventures' staff is adept at understanding complex social and environmental contexts and working collaboratively with our clients to determine hidden bottom-line positions. Our experience includes advanced mediation; third-party neutral dispute resolution; community relations and organizational development analysis. CLFV has the technical competence and facilitation skills to help move projects forward in ways that can minimize delays and negative outcomes.
"CLFV provided a much needed calming voice. Their credibility was a real asset."
