Services And Solutions

Enhancing the spaces that enrich the quality of life

At Tom Irwin Advisors, our services and solutions are designed to support your green space project needs at each step in the project life cycle — delivering the expertise you need at that moment to ensure your project stays on track and fulfills all three dimensions of sustainability.

Because we are dedicated to ensuring success across the full project life cycle, the scope of our advisor services is broad — from assessment and evaluation, to project management and construction oversight, to training and maintenance planning. Our offerings are organized into the three major project phases: Design, Build, and Manage.

  • Pre and post construction evaluations and benchmarking

Whether you’re just embarking on a project, undertaking a major revitalization effort, or simply seeking to take a property from good to great, Tom Irwin Advisors can provide as much — or as little — support as you need to ensure that your park or sports field is everything you imagined: beautiful, safe, enjoyable, and sustainable for years to come.
