Better Health for All

Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. participates in the "Drive Clean Rural USA" pilot program, which aims to bring alternative fuel sources to rural communities.

This program is designed to reduce pollution, generating positive health externalities. The company also states a commitment to helping clients meet ESG goals through decarbonizing and energy-saving strategies, including renewable energy, energy storage, electric vehicle charging, and energy efficiency, further contributing to positive health externalities by reducing pollution. While the program targets rural communities, which can be vulnerable, the company's business model does not primarily involve serving vulnerable populations with health needs, making the KPI 'vulnerable_reach' not applicable.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. is a professional services firm. The provided articles explicitly state that KPIs related to fair trade and ethical sourcing, including fair-trade certified spend, supplier audit frequency, forced/child labor incidents, supply chain traceability, remediation speed, ethical clause coverage, materials risk index, and supplier diversity spend, are 'Not applicable' to the company's operations.

This indicates the company does not procure or trade physical commodities, nor does it have a supplier base requiring welfare or sourcing audits in the context of these specific metrics.

Honest & Fair Business

Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. has a comprehensive Whistleblower Policy, issued in August 2024 and updated in November 2022, which applies to all directors, officers, employees, and temporary workers across the company and its subsidiaries.

It provides multiple reporting channels, including anonymous hotlines (703-787-3400, 844-944-3402) and an email option, and explicitly states protection against retaliation. The company commits to engaging an independent third party for investigations if a board member is the subject of a report. However, there is no evidence regarding the frequency of training, uptake rates, or resolution times for whistleblower reports. The company has an anti-corruption policy, implied through its compliance with federal, state, and local laws and regulations regarding procurement integrity, bribery, and anti-corruption requirements. It also has a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct that promotes compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The company engages third-party experts, including cybersecurity consultants, to evaluate and test its risk management systems. However, there is no specific percentage of ethical claims verified by third parties.

Kind to Animals

Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. is a professional services firm, and its core business model does not involve products, animal testing, animal-derived ingredients, or animal agriculture.

Therefore, KPIs related to these activities are not applicable. The company has no animal husbandry or captive operations under its control, nor does it source eggs, meat, or dairy. There is no evidence of animal testing or R&D relevant to animal-free substitution. While Bowman Consulting plays a role in regional habitat conservation plans, statewide park planning assessments, and endangered species research, and conducts a study focused on reducing bat fatalities at wind turbines, the provided articles do not offer measurable biodiversity impact, species recovery, or habitat restoration metrics to score the 'wildlife_conservation_impact' KPI.

Safe & Smart Tech

The provided articles do not contain specific, quantifiable data points for any of the 'Safe & Smart Tech' KPIs. While one article mentions that the company conducts regular enterprise-wide cybersecurity training for all employees, it explicitly states that no metrics on training completion rates or assessment results are provided, preventing a score.

Similarly, statements about no specific data breaches or unauthorized data use incidents being mentioned are not equivalent to a confirmed record of zero incidents over a defined period. There is no information on cybersecurity investment as a percentage of revenue, privacy certifications, encryption implementation, AI ethics governance, or any other detailed security or privacy practices.

The provided articles do not contain any specific, quantitative data points for Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. regarding waste diversion rates, product recyclability, packaging sustainability, recycled content, single-use plastic reduction, take-back programs, circular design principles, waste reduction initiatives, hazardous waste management, product durability, repairability scores, waste audit frequency, zero-waste certifications, waste disposal violations, material efficiency, packaging-to-product ratios, waste reduction targets, supplier waste requirements, or customer waste education. Multiple articles explicitly state a lack of such data for the company's own operations and products.
