Ecosystem Solutions was established in Dunsborough, in the south west corner of Western Australia, in 2005. It is managed by Gary McMahon, the principle consultant and founder of the service.

Ecosystem Solutions is a small and distinctive company that specialises in providing ecosystem management solutions. We offer expertise in integrating ecological management principles into natural resource management, environmental planning, biodiversity conservation and individual project management.
Our clients include Commonwealth and State Government agencies, Local governments, regional councils, volunteer groups, community organisations, and private landowners.

Our Approach

Our Approach is founded on our commitment to honestly understanding our client’s needs and priorities. We then integrate this with sound scientific analysis and information to assist them in making responsible decisions in land use planning, resource management or ecosystem restoration. We are committed to developing positive long-term relationships with both our clients and the communities in which they are involved. We continually seek ways to improve our skills, services and quality of our work to improve the quality and ecological health of our project sites and the biota within them.

Ecosystem management has been defined as:
Management driven by explicit goals executed by policies, protocols and practices and made adaptable by monitoring and research based on our best understanding of the ecological interactions and processes necessary to sustain ecosystem composition, structural and function.
