Getting another party to conduct a study will still involve engineering (ecologists and scientists may be tapped for specific information). The problem is who pays for that work -
Fixing is a broad term. Taking measures to prevent further beach erosion would be more specific.
As far as paying for a scientific study by a group that has no commercial interest in the beach - yeah, exactly - who pays for that. While the Sandals report does appear very well done and researched we must remember that Sandals payed for it. There are reports from Chevron and BP concerning the environment that also come off very "friendly".
