Our Story

Cloud-enabled was founded with a straightforward purpose: to make professional environmental consulting accessible to organisations of all sizes. What began as a small team of passionate ecologists has grown into a respected consultancy serving clients across the United Kingdom.

Our journey started when our founding members recognised a gap in the market. Many businesses wanted to operate more sustainably but found existing consultancy services either prohibitively expensive or too academic for practical application. We set out to change that.

Today, we combine rigorous scientific methodology with pragmatic business thinking. Every recommendation we make is grounded in evidence, yet designed for real-world implementation. This balance has earned us the trust of over 340 organisations, from small enterprises to major corporations.

Our Values

🌱

Scientific Integrity

Every assessment and recommendation is backed by peer-reviewed research and established ecological principles. We never compromise on the quality of our analysis.

🤝

Practical Solutions

Knowledge means little without application. We translate complex environmental data into clear, actionable strategies that organisations can implement effectively.

🔍

Transparency

We communicate openly about methodologies, findings, and limitations. Our clients always understand exactly what we've assessed and why we've reached our conclusions.

🌍

Long-term Thinking

Environmental challenges require sustained commitment. We design strategies that deliver immediate results whilst building foundations for lasting ecological benefit.

Our Approach

We believe effective environmental consulting requires more than technical expertise—it demands genuine partnership with our clients. Our process begins with listening: understanding your organisation's operations, challenges, constraints, and aspirations.

From this foundation, we develop bespoke solutions tailored to your specific context. We avoid one-size-fits-all templates, recognising that every organisation faces unique environmental circumstances.
