Foundational · Physical climate risk screening
Physical climate risk screening at the location that matters most.
Five working sessions over 5 weeks. We screen physical climate risk at one priority location, identify a short list of practical resilience actions, and prepare a one-page evidence summary you can use with an insurer, lender or buyer. It is designed for businesses that need a credible first answer without commissioning a full climate risk assessment.

The upgrade credit
Forty percent of the Foundational fee ($H) credits against Comprehensive if you go deeper within 12 months. The full Snapshot fee credits against either deeper tier within 90 days. Starting small does not cost you later.
What Foundational is not
Foundational is a screening-level engagement for one priority location. It is not a full ISO 14091 climate risk assessment and does not include independent external review. If several sites matter, the decisions are material, or a client or funder requires a more complete assessment, Comprehensive is the appropriate depth.
Frequently asked questions
What is physical climate risk screening?
Physical climate risk screening is a proportionate first assessment of the hazards that could affect a location and the business activities that depend on it. It helps identify where deeper analysis or resilience action is justified without beginning with a full climate risk assessment.
What does the Foundational engagement include?
It includes screening one priority location across a standard 12-hazard panel, identifying existing and potential resilience measures, prioritizing practical actions, and preparing a concise external evidence summary.
Can we use the results with an insurer, lender or buyer?
Yes. The underlying analysis is prepared once and the evidence can be framed for the external audience asking the question. The engagement does not guarantee that an insurer, lender or buyer will accept a particular response.
When should we move to a full climate risk assessment?
A full assessment is more appropriate when several sites are material, the decision has significant financial or operational consequences, uncertainty needs deeper treatment, or the work needs to follow a more complete standards-based process.
