AQUI-VER, INC
6871 North 2200 West, #8F, Park City, Utah, United States

AQUI-VER, INC. (AVI) was created to address business, environmental and community issues using scientifically rigorous geology, hydraulics, physics and chemistry.  Aquifer means "water bearing" from its Latin roots and represents the entity and resource so closely tied to our work.  Substituting "ver" means "water truth", reflecting the accuracy and rigor we bring to our area of specialization.

AVI specializes in managing and maximally utilizing technical data from a variety of scientific and engineering fields.  Peruse our site to see how the scientific process can answer real-world questions about property management, resources, contamination, risk, liability and cost optimization.  Unlike some consulting groups that need an ongoing work backlog to sustain their infrastructure, our small size allows us to be completely detached from the majority of project spending, freeing us to aggressively question and conserve costs.  It is an unfortunate reality in our field that many of the costs sustained by businesses and communities have very little return on that investment.  AVI strives to fix that, it is our reason for being.

To draw a parallel to the medical field, a high quality diagnosis is generally what leads to a high quality prognosis. A poor diagnosis will rarely lead to a good cure. The parallel in hydrogeologic projects is the use of state-of-the-science approaches to evaluate data and conditions to accurate opinions. We find solutions for our clients through focus, efficiency, skills and knowledge

OUR MOTTO

Scientific quantification may not tell you what is right, but it sure the heck will tell you what is wrong!  The power is both in the process and the answers generated.  Flexible thinking is the key element to successful solutions.

AVI's goal is to manage, understand and communicate complex scientific and engineering information within and beyond the water resources and environmental spectrum.  By applying rigorous and defensible science, we create predictive and interactive products that assist in managing environmental issues.  AVI specializes in computing technologies which allow information management and spatial analysis tools to be applied in a virtual real-time environment. We develop interactive tools to allow clients to make informed technical decisions having social and economic impacts. 

COMPANY PROFILE

AVI was founded in 1992 by G.D. Beckett, and incorporated as a Chapter C corporation in the State of California in early 1994.  We are presently a Utah-based Corporation, with offices in Park City, Utah, Seal Beach, California, and Denver, Colorado.

The company was created to meet a need for predictive application of science for groundwater and environmental applications.   AVI's services include lab and field data collection, data management and manipulation and groundwater/environmental modeling.  We are focused on providing demonstrable economic value from applied sciences.  It is in the technical details that this value to businesses and communities may be found. 

AVI has a long history of technical publishing and conducting training courses nationally and beyond.  While our work is of the highest technical caliber, our ability to communicate that work to lay audiences is one of our strongest assets.  Solving technical problems is of little value if those solutions cannot be communicated and acted upon in simple pragmatic ways.

"The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them."  - Albert Einstein

So true. The dawn of industrial progress came with a substantial lack of knowledge about the environmental impacts that would be created. We've learned a lot, and are still progressing, but there are many issues to manage as a result of our industry.

since we all live in the environment, care and stewardship is necessary to keep it healthy and sustainable for ourselves and future generations. At AVI, we combine strategy and scientific skills to help clients steward their environment challenges and the associated liabilities. We are leaders in both the technical skills and strategic application resulting in management optimization. 

check out our services and publications to get a better idea of how these skills & strategies can help you manage your environmental issues, and identify clear, logical exit strategies to complex problems.

SERVICES

AVI's services are based on our skills and expertise in hydrogeologic understanding, problem solving, and presentation. We apply these skills to water, environmental, mining, and other related hydrogeologic applications.

Services differ from products primarily in their project uniqueness and specificity. Most services are priced from our T&M Rates. However, clients have found that AVI's has standardized many services into fixed cost products that may suite your needs (see link to the right). So be sure to check a few of those out, and email us with questions so we can help put you on track.

Keep in mind that the value of AVI's services cannot be measured by its rates, but rather only on the returns. As the famous story of Picasso's 3 minute painting, the value was not the 3 minutes it took to create, but rather the lifetime of work required to produce it. As our references and publications suggest, our acquired skills and character give our clients exceptional value.
