Resolute

What Resolute does

Resolute Environmental & Water Resources Consulting Services was a privately held environmental and water resources consulting firm founded in 2010 and headquartered in Woodstock, Georgia. The firm operated with 11–50 employees and served clients across the Southeast United States, with particular depth in the Utilities Sector. Its service portfolio focused on four specialty areas: environmental services for power generation and transmission, hazardous waste assessment and remediation, brownfield programs, and groundwater resources and water supply consulting. The firm described itself as a niche provider with a long-standing client base anchored by regulated utility customers requiring ongoing environmental compliance and site management support.

Resolute's business model was conventional professional services consulting: revenue derived from project-based and program-level engagements — likely a mix of assessment, permitting, monitoring, and remediation contracts — with utilities and industrial clients in the Southeast. No publicly disclosed pricing, fee structure, or contract economics are available. The firm did not raise external funding, and its 15-year independent operation was supported by repeat engagements and founder-led client relationships. Founder Stephen Wilson framed the value proposition in terms of continuity of attention and personalized service to long-standing clients.

On January 8, 2025, Resolute was acquired by EnSafe, an environmental, engineering, and health & safety services firm. Per EnSafe's announcement, the acquisition was motivated by a desire to establish a physical presence in Georgia, gain access to Resolute's Utilities Sector client base, and leverage aligned values between the two firms. Following the acquisition, Resolute operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary within EnSafe rather than as an independent entity, and any growth or expansion signals now flow through EnSafe's broader corporate strategy. Note: the "Resolute" brand is also used by an unrelated legal services entity (Resolute Systems, a Veritext company) in dispute resolution and mediation; that entity is distinct from Resolute Environmental & Water Resources Consulting Services and is not the subject of this analysis.

Direct peers

• Brown and Caldwell: Specialist environmental and water resources engineering consultancy focused on water/wastewater infrastructure and utility clients; directly comparable to Resolute's groundwater and water supply practice serving the Southeast utilities sector.
