About Us
We are a small team of wastewater management consultants who thrive on measuring, reporting and treating wastewater.
We provide wastewater treatment advice with accuracy. Our personal approach means transparent, friendly service.
“I have always found BPO to be of great value. BPO has demonstrated the high degree of ownership of issues that you would expect from a consummate professional organisation. I am personally happy to endorse BPO.”
John Herbert, Facilities Team Lead
“We had a client who needed an environmental compliance monitoring system installed across four sites with some extremely tight deadlines. We had proposals from three different providers but chose BPO because they had the knowledge and equipment that would enable our client to meet their compliance obligations. BPO was able to provide a turnkey solution for our client with supply of equipment, commissioning, design, installation, electrical and as built drawing information.
BPO delivered above what was asked and at times the client asked for support that was above and beyond the agreed scope of work and BPO happily went the extra mile. Throughout the project, BPO were approachable, responsive and professional, I would have no hesitation in working with them again in the future.”
Ash Croudis, Consultant Engineer | BECA
“Whenever I have open channel flow or dairy wastewater monitoring questions or audits to do, BPO is my first port of call.
Over the last 15 plus years I have found the BPO team are always friendly, professional, and have an inventive solution to fit our required applications."
Rod McNair, Process Technologist
LOWER NORTH ISLAND SITES, FONTERRA CO-OP GROUP LTD
“For over 20 years BPO has taken care of our trade waste requirements across our 2 businesses. BPO manages the relationship with the council and our consents, they undertake our monitoring and work with us to identify any issues or changes that are required. Working with BPO has allowed us to focus on our business, knowing they are managing our consent and tradewaste requirements.
The team at BPO are professional, responsive and most importantly so easy to deal with."
Ross Smith | WAIKATO PETFOODS
"BPO has completed wastewater flow and loading surveys on multiple sites for Watercare in the Waikato over the past year. BPO consistently demonstrated an ability to utilize appropriate equipment and resources to successfully achieve our objectives, even within challenging time constraints. The team at BPO has covered critical Public Holidays and consistently exhibits a genuine interest in the data they collect. They go above and beyond to ensure that the data is valid and to bring attention to any irregular data points or trends. We value BPO’s support as we plan treatment plant upgrades. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to delivering quality results have made them an essential component of our team."
Peter Crabb | Project Manager

The diligence and attention applied to our needs by BPO, and the quality of expertise we have and continue to experience is invaluable to our operation. We look forward to an ongoing relationship between our two businesses where we are able to leverage BPO’s expertise to continue to meet our compliance and sustainability objectives into the future”.
