Our clients include public sector bodies, local authorities, architectural and engineering consultancies, as well as private developers. Our consultants have extensive experience across a wide range of development types including power generation, road and rail infrastructure, flood relief, water supply schemes, mining developments and public amenities. We provide a range of services including desk-based surveys, impact assessments and historic building recording, through to the design, procurement and management of archaeological investigations and post-excavation works. We also offer specialist services including geophysical surveys, GIS/mapping and historical research. With offices in both Ireland and the UK, our unique multidisciplinary team of archaeologists, project managers and historians brings together many years’ accumulated experience within the public and private sectors. All of our consultants come with extensive academic and professional backgrounds in archaeology and related disciplines. Over the past two decades, they have built up unrivalled experience across a wide range of developments involving complex cultural heritage issues in Ireland, the UK and Australia. Based on this proven track record, we provide project-specific heritage solutions and solid support to our clients in their negotiations with heritage authorities. We also manage the implementation of archaeological works on behalf of our clients, delivering quality results in a timely and cost-effective manner. Here at AMS, we aim to minimise the financial risk to our clients and potential delays to critical construction programmes, while also ensuring that statutory heritage obligations are met and good heritage outcomes are achieved.
