Aecom has won a 10-year contract worth up to $270m from the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for architecture and engineering services across the agency’s eastern, central and western regions.
The scope of work includes delivering new and upgraded air traffic control towers, radar towers and lighting.
Aecom will provide architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, fire life safety and environmental design, plus construction administration support.
The indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity multiple award project will bring projects under a single, streamlined overview.
Bane Gaiser, Aecom’s chief executive of buildings and places, said: “Our team has successfully delivered more than $100bn of aviation projects globally, including the design and delivery of more than 20 air traffic control towers to date.”
Karl Jensen, Aecom’s executive vice-president of government business, said: “As we continue our 44-year partnership with the FAA, we’re proud to expand our current portfolio in the eastern region to deepen our impact across the central and western regions.”
Aecom says it has 1,000 employees specialising in aviation. It has recently won contracts to provide construction support services at Florence Regional Airport in South Carolina and design services at Chicago Rockford International Airport in Illinois (pictured).
