About Envirich

A practice built by registered experts, not generalists.

  • Operating across the United Republic of Tanzania since 2002.
  • Senior staff registered as Environmental, Sociologist and Safety Experts with NEMC — several holding both EIA and Environmental Audit (EA) certification.
  • Two integrated practice divisions covering impact assessment and occupational safety.
  • Track record spanning telecoms infrastructure, oil & gas exploration, mining, manufacturing, banking, hospitality and refugee-camp operations.

ENVIRICH Consultant Limited provides environmental, health and safety consultancy to developers, contractors and operators in the United Republic of Tanzania and beyond. Our professional staff are registered with the relevant statutory bodies, including as NEMC Environmental Experts — confirming qualification, field experience, and adherence to the ethics required of senior consulting staff.

We work in two integrated divisions: environmental and social impact assessment, and occupational safety and health. Rather than treating these as separate disciplines, we run them together — a mining, energy or infrastructure project rarely has an environmental risk that isn't also a worker-safety risk, and vice versa. Our project record includes work for telecommunications networks, offshore oil and gas exploration, gold and copper mining, breweries, banking branch networks, hospitality venues and UNHCR refugee-camp operations.

Our clients don't need another report. They need a partner who has actually stood on the site, taken the reading, and can tell them exactly what the regulator will ask next.

— Eng. Richard Mgambwa, Managing Director
What we do

Two divisions. One accountable team.

Every engagement draws on both practice areas where relevant, so environmental findings and safety findings are never delivered in isolation from each other.

DIVISION — ENVIRONMENT

Environmental & Social Impact Assessment

Feasibility-stage studies covering the natural, cultural and social footprint of building and civil infrastructure projects, from screening through to post-approval monitoring.

  • Environmental and social impact assessments (ESIA)
  • Social impact studies and stakeholder engagement
  • Environmental and social monitoring, including HIV/AIDS prevention programmes
  • Environmental audit and NEMC compliance review
DIVISION — SAFETY

Occupational Safety & Health

Practical, OSHA-compliant safety management — from risk assessment and statutory audits through to training and instrumented measurement on your actual site.

  • Health and safety audits and risk assessment
  • Fire safety programmes and accident investigation
  • OHS training for workers and management
  • Project monitoring for HSE / OSHA licensing compliance
  • Work-environment measurement — heat/cold stress, noise, light, dust, gases, fumes, aerosols, radiation, indoor air quality and ventilation efficiency
  • Implementation of integrated safety and health management systems (OHSAS 18001:2007)
How an engagement runs

The assessment cycle we take every project through.

STEP 01

Screening

We confirm whether your project requires a full or limited assessment under Tanzanian EIA regulations, and register it with NEMC.

STEP 02

Scoping & baseline

Field teams establish baseline environmental, social and occupational conditions through site visits and stakeholder consultation.

STEP 03

Assessment & ESMP

We quantify impacts and deliver an Environmental and Social Management Plan with concrete mitigation and safety measures.

STEP 04

Monitoring & audit

Ongoing compliance monitoring, safety audits and refresher training keep the project accountable after approval.
