Collaboration

Since no one individual can be an expert in all of these fields, GAI regularly assembles teams of experts and collaborators to match very specific project needs.

Innovation

While science guides the process success also relies upon real-world practical experience and constant innovation.

Design-Build

Gillilan does not believe it is possible to create successful designs without having deep and hands-on construction experience.

Clients & Project Types

GAI works principally with private landowners, investment groups, state and federal natural resource agencies, heavy construction firms, architects, conservation districts, other natural resource consultants and conservation non-profits. Project sizes range from pro bono work to expert testimony through million dollar plus design, permit and construction projects. GAI also regularly prepares feasibility assessments, conducts research assignments and provides peer advisory and review services.

Typical projects include those focusing on hydrologic resiliency, aquatic and wetland restoration and innovative approaches to land conservation.

  • Nature is ever at work building and pulling down, creating and destroying, keeping everything whirling and flowing, allowing no rest but in rhythmical motion, chasing everything in endless song out of one beautiful form into another.John Muir
