How we work

Atlas Weathering Technology Consultants draw on decades of weathering expertise to help evaluate the performance and durability of materials and products subjected to environmental stresses.

Weathering technology is spread over many different scientific and technical fields. Nevertheless, we look at weathering as if it were a scientific discipline – “The Discipline of Weathering.” The Atlas Consulting Group provides expertise in all fields where weathering is important; and therefore, offers a comprehensive review of your specific topics. Our highly educated, experienced, and interdisciplinary staff works with clients to offer extensive knowledge and expertise, providing customized services and programs specific to your products and needs. A global network of scientific and technical partners complement our own in-house expertise when necessary.

The first step in a project is a Needs Assessment. We take time to precisely define the goals and objectives, expectations and limitations, and conflicts and alternatives for each engagement. It is crucial for a project’s success that these points are carefully defined and agreed upon before starting the actual work in order to avoid producing answers without precisely knowing the questions. Based on this, we develop a detailed project proposal including tasks, milestones, schedule and cost. During the whole project, Atlas Consulting Group works according to transparent and sophisticated processes. For each step in the foundation phase, the engagement phase, and the continuation phase, tasks and deliverables will be well defined.

During a project, a Project Manager from the Atlas Consulting Group manages all communication with you and our internal and external experts, partners, and sub-contractors to make sure that the project meets the agreed milestones, schedule and budget.
