| Aecom affiliate selected for LAX development program Los Angeles-based Aecom Technology Corp. has announced that it has been awarded a one-year, $25-million contract to provide program management services supporting the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Experts from Aecom's aviation practice, DMJM Aviation, will manage the development program, which includes the Midfield Satellite Concourse, New Large Aircraft gates at the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT), and related projects such as taxiways, tunnels, aircraft ramp areas, utility improvements, and other infrastructure repair and replacement projects that need to be performed to enable construction of these major projects to begin. The one-year contract also calls for Aecom's aviation practice to mobilize a delivery team to advance these projects, while developing a more comprehensive understanding of the overall CIP, which includes LAX projects that are estimated between $5 and $8 billion over the next 10 years. A notice to proceed was issued on March 20. Once the CIP is further defined, Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) may, with Los Angeles City Council approval, extend the contract term to continue program management services over a six-year period. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
