Dear Friends of the Geoprofessions:
I invite you to take a closer look at ASFE/The Geoprofessional Business Association (GBA). We are a not-for-profit organization whose 300 Member Firms provide geotechnical, geologic, environmental, construction-materials engineering and testing, and related geoprofessional services that are essential to the welfare of our society and economy. Value is derived from the wise deployment of geoprofessional expertise where below-ground (“subsurface”), ground-surface, and ground-surface-connected conditions, structures, or formations present challenges and opportunities. GBA specializes in helping our members and their clients confront risk and optimize performance in order to maximize geoprofessionals' importance and value to the marketplace. I am honored to serve as GBA’s president during the organization’s May 2013-April 2014 year.
ASFE Statement on SustainabilityAdopted January 28, 2011 Sustainable practices and the geoprofession go hand in hand. ASFE member firms have been pioneers in sustainability and have, in fact, been developing and implementing sustainable practices since ASFE’s inception.

ASFE continues to lead in the further development and refinement of sustainable practices through the following objectives:
ASFE affirms a commitment to take a leadership position with regard to sustainability. ASFE also affirms our belief that as a small organization we create significantly greater value when we help our members firms develop and implement sustainable outcomes in the services they perform for their clients. |
