Challenges

Now more than ever, clients are looking to incorporate diverse and inclusive (D&I) engineering designs that incorporate the needs of all operational stakeholders and end users. D&I Design focuses on incorporating human beliefs, ideas, and opinions to enable an inclusive workforce. This perspective includes a person’s age, race, gender, ability, economic status, and culture, along with anything that may influence diversity of thought, such as experience, perspective, education, and skillset.

By enabling a more diverse population to contribute and succeed in their environment, D&I Design brings new ideas in, fosters a safer and healthier environment, increases productivity, and improves performance.

Expanding your potential

D&I设计策略是一个持续的过程hould constantly be evaluated. It can be challenging to implement because it involves changing deep-rooted traditions of thinking and identifying aspects that need to be improved.

To deliver the most inclusive and accessible solutions, we have developed a six-step process:
