About Keystone

An award-winning engineering and environmental consultancy, founded in Norwich in 2016 and operating across the UK.

Who we are

Built environment and natural environment, under one roof

Founded in 2016 in Norwich, Keystone provides strategic guidance, specialist technical services and advice to private individuals, land and asset owners, local authorities and governments, contractors and developers.

Our specialists know what is required to take a wide range of projects through each stage of their evolution — from the earliest concept and feasibility stages, through planning and detailed design, to construction and handover.

We take pride in traditional values of integrity, innovation and excellence. The emphasis is on long-term sustainable relationships with our people, clients, suppliers and local communities, and on a more personable and accountable service.

Engineering and environmental analysis with coordinated technical design across the disciplines required.

03

04

Support

Planning, construction and ongoing technical support until the appointment is closed.

Our values

Assumptions, limits and residual risks are stated plainly. A file is complete when it can be defended.

Innovation

Excellence

Quality of advice, drawings and assessments is treated as a professional standard, not an optional extra.

Accountability

A more personable and accountable service, with clear ownership from brief through delivery.

Sustainability

Long-term relationships with people, clients, suppliers and communities, and care for the planet.
