| AECOM awarded contract by the Los Angeles Community College District AECOM Technology Corporation (NYSE: ACM), a leading provider of professional technical and management support services for public and private clients in more than 140 countries around the world, announced that it has been awarded a US$94.6-million program management contract for the final phase of the Los Angeles Community College District's (LACCD) building program. The LACCD's building program is a 14-year, US$6-billion program that is modernizing and renovating the district's nine colleges and related facilities for students, faculty and staff, funded primarily through taxpayer-approved bonds with supplemental funding from the state of California. As program manager, AECOM will manage funds to achieve the goals of first-rate results and maximum value for taxpayers. The final phase will follow a more centralized structure following the LACCD's recent reforms, including strict oversight and a transparent process for completing the building project, resulting in the remaining US$2.7-billion in funds being spent efficiently and effectively. The building program's final phase is expected to be completed within five years. write your comments about the article :: © 2013 Construction News :: home page |
