Key Strengths
Northern Research and Development
Kavik-AXYS provides our clients with a northern advantage by providing
opportunities to integrate local knowledge with business opportunities
and environmental best practices.
Environmental Impact Assessment
 The delivery of EIAs is a cornerstone of our community services. Assessments are tailored to meet regulatory requirements while also focusing only on the primary issues of concern. Kavik-AXYS offers a full suite of EIA services, including advanced technical capability, skilled project
management, public and government consultation, and continued support
during public
hearings and review.
Cumulative Effects Assessment
We are at the forefront of CEA practice with the development of new
and innovative approaches to assessing cumulative effects. Kavik-AXYS has developed
and evolved advanced analytical tools and approaches to produce comprehensive
assessments that deliver the appropriate level of information to government
regulators and the public.
Terrestrial Services
Our biologists have extensive expertise with species-specific life
histories and habitat requirements, as well as broader concepts of conservation
biology and sustainability. In addition, they regularly employ a suite
of state-of-the-art modeling techniques for evaluating habitat suitability
and effectiveness, habitat
connectivity and biodiversity.
With comprehensive experience in native vegetation, community classification
and mapping, impact assessment, rare plant identification, weed management,
and revegetation planning, we are leaders in assessment methodologies
for rare plants. Our botanists have developed practical mitigation strategies
for minimizing project impacts to plants of nutritional and medicinal
value. We work closely with local residents to identify important vegetation
communities, and to integrate local knowledge with western science.
 Public Participation
Kavik-AXYS staff have considerable training and diverse experience in planning,
coordinating and facilitating numerous participation programs for a
range of development projects. We also have senior specialists in the development and negotiation of benefit agreements.
Training
Training is viewed by Kavik-AXYS as a facilitated exchange of knowledge
to improve our client's capabilities or the public's understanding
of issues and accepted practices. Training can supplement internal development
programs or provide the beginnings for such initiatives.
