About Us
Founded in 2015 INC are an award winning independent town planning consultancy which focusses on consenting infrastructure projects across the UK. Specialists in managing consents for energy transmission, storage and generation, ports, highways and waste infrastructure, Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIPs), Development Consent Orders (DCO), infrastructure consents in Wales, Transport and Works Act (TWA) Orders and EU Projects of Common Interest under the TEN-E Regulation.
INC provides specialist DCO strategy, appraisal and advisory services for infrastructure projects and major development. We support promoters, developers and delivery bodies in navigating the complexities of the UK infrastructure planning and consenting regime with clarity and foresight. Our strategic advisory services focus on DCO consentability, planning risk, programme certainty and regulatory compliance. We undertake early-stage project appraisal to identify consenting risks, policy constraints and stakeholder sensitivities, enabling informed decisions before significant resources are committed. By aligning project objectives with national policy statements and infrastructure planning requirements, we help clients develop consenting strategies that are realistic, proportionate and deliverable. With deep experience of infrastructure planning, DCO examinations and decision-making, we provide expert advice on approach, sequencing and evidence requirements. Our guidance supports promoters in managing uncertainty, reducing examination risk and ensuring projects are positioned to secure consent within demanding statutory frameworks.
