Tunley Environmental has launched a Climate Risk and Resilience Strategy service, expanding the Leeds consultancy’s offer into an area that is moving quickly from sustainability reporting concern to operational discipline. The new service is aimed at organisations trying to quantify how extreme weather, long-term climate shifts, supply chain disruption, policy change, and disclosure requirements could affect assets, business continuity, and investment decisions.
For manufacturers, infrastructure operators, property owners, and regulated businesses, that moves the conversation beyond headline carbon targets. It shifts attention towards site exposure, operational vulnerability, insurance risk, supplier resilience, and the ability of facilities and capital plans to hold up under different climate scenarios. Tunley is positioning its new service around that broader question of resilience, with a framework designed to connect climate data to practical actions rather than stand-alone reporting.
According to the company, the service follows a structured, two-phase process that combines climate risk assessment with a resilience plan. The work covers physical, transition, and reputational risks, and can scale from portfolio-level screening to site-specific modelling. Tunley says the approach aligns with ISO 14090, ISO 14091, and ISO 14092 standards, while also supporting organisations working towards TCFD and CSRD-style disclosure requirements.
Its published methodology focuses on geospatial exposure analysis, vulnerability scoring, and scenario modelling across multiple emissions pathways and time horizons. The intention is to move from identifying hazards such as flooding, heat stress, drought, storms, and changing regulatory pressures into prioritised adaptation actions, governance measures, and investment planning. Tunley also says the outputs can feed into board papers, sustainability disclosures, and investor communications, reflecting how climate risk is increasingly being handled as a mainstream governance issue.
Dr Tara Garraty, Senior Sustainability Scientist and Biodiversity Lead at Tunley Environmental, said: “Our Climate Risk and Resiliency service empowers organisations of all sizes to better understand climate risks, strengthen resilience, future-proof their operations and ultimately reduce financial and reputational risk that climate uncertainty poses.”
The launch is being backed by a CPD-certified webinar on 22 April, where Tunley plans to set out how climate risk assessments and resilience planning can be used in day-to-day decision-making. Further detail on the service is available via Tunley’s climate risk and resilience page, and webinar registration is open on the event page.
