Global assurance in ourstrategic expertise
AECOM continues to lead the way with“mega” projects in our key marketsof energy, environment, government,transportation, urban regeneration,mega cities, mining and major events.Our reputation for excellence is matchedby our enthusiasm for innovation andpioneering solutions.
Our strategic expertise is demonstratedby our solid level of repeat business withmajor clients, who entrust their assetsinto AECOM’s stewardship, knowing wewill deliver the return on investmentthey require as well as meet theirsponsors’ demands.
The trend for major infrastructurecontinues to grow. More than $500billion is being spent annuallyworldwide, and 40 percent of that isgoing into projects with a capital valueof $10 billion or more — exactly thetype of mega project we at AECOM
are so passionate about. We know theenormous sums of money riding onthe success of projects of this size.Company balance sheets and evengovernment balance-of-paymentaccounts can be affected by theiroutcome for many years to come, andthe added possibility of cost overrunsand lower-than-expected revenues canposition mega projects as high-risk.
AECOM has developed an enviable setof strategies to combat this, however,
built on the knowledge we have gainedfrom planning major infrastructure, fromurban cities to intermodal transportsystems and energy-efcient powerplants. AECOM provides the globalassurance investors and sponsors needwhen they are faced with selecting apartner they can count on to deliver onpromises.

EnergyPeople will always need energy, and itis our job to make sure that this energycomes from the cleanest and mostefcient sources. AECOM is a leader
in providing integrated planning andenergy solutions for a sustainablefuture. We help our clients reduceenergy consumption, develop renewablesources, improve grid reliability and cutemissions from fuels already in use.
We are committed to addressing thecomplete spectrum of energy challengesthat major infrastructure is faced with.As such, we can offer expertise innuclear, renewable energy, conventionalpower and oil and gas to increase energy
efciency, and build in sustainablecarbon management into energy assetcreation.
EnvironmentAs public and private sector clientsbecome more aware of the vital needto conserve and manage naturalresources, AECOM is increasingly called
into service. AECOM scientists andengineers around the world are restoringcontaminated land and water, enhancingair and water quality, addressingclimate change, protecting publichealth and, ultimately, safeguarding theenvironment so future generations canenjoy a better quality of life.
We provide a seamless deliveryof comprehensive environmentalmanagement as part of every majorproject we carry out, with a primary

6 Major Projects
GovernmentPublic-Private Partnership (PPP) onmajor projects has attracted increasingattention worldwide and is seen asa promise for the future. It is oftenconsidered a third option for preparingand managing public infrastructureprojects, in addition to traditional publicproject development and privatisation.
AECOM works with federal governmentsaround the world to prepare majorproject structures, contract out theconstruction and take care of themaintenance and operation.
TransportationAECOM’s services are in high demandwhen it comes to large-scaletransportation initiatives. We have had astrong hand across the board — in suchmarkets as aviation, transit, bridges,freight and rail, ports and marine,planning and highways — with clients
repeatedly calling on us to take chargewhen they are faced with a seeminglyoverwhelming task.
Our commitment is to nd andimplement more acceptable andsustainable ways to move people acrosstowns, cities, countries and continents.To that end, we not only plan, designand project manage entirely newtransportation systems, we also restoreand replace ageing infrastructure,thus enabling nations to maintain their
economic competitiveness in the globalmarket.

Urban RegenerationOver the last 30 years, thenature of urban regenerationprojects has reected the widergovernment policies around theworld. Consultation with localcommunities regarding futureplans has been recognizedas being vital to the successof major urban regenerationprojects. They now need to worknot only on a physical level, butalso need to create viable, vibrantand sustainable communitiesthat change the way we livetoday.
Mega CitiesThe challenges associatedwith living in heavily populated“mega” cities are numerous,from overcrowding, inadequatehousing, water supply andsewage treatment to airpollution. These issues havecome about due to the massiveincrease in urbanisation, whichhas soared by more than 100percent since 1950 in developingcountries alone. This rapidgrowth has often been withoutindustrialisation, which has ledto the local infrastructure andeconomy being unable to support
the large area population.

8 Major Projects
MiningNatural minerals and metals such asuranium, copper, titanium and goldoffer a wealth of opportunities for bothmining companies and governmentsin terms of revenue. However, large-scale mining brings environmentaldestruction, whose repair calls forsustainable exploration, extraction anddistribution. The triple bottom line ofeconomic prosperity, social acceptanceand environmental impact must beachieved if the project is to be deemeda success.
In a competitive world, miningcompanies are always looking foroperational improvements to theirprocesses, from mines to concentratorsto smelters. This is where AECOMcomes in.
Major EventsMajor sporting events such as the
Olympic Games, Commonwealth andAsian Games demand delivery to xedtimeframes, but they also requireexcellence in terms of creating a lastinglegacy to the local community andsocial infrastructure.
These major events attract globalattention, uniting whole countries ina fever pitch of expectation that justcannot fail.
Governments compete on a global
scale for the right to stage such worldevents, but with selection comes hugerealisation. Scale and complexityincrease risk, which, in turn, demandsstrategic coordination and assurance ofdelivery.

Federal governments, major ownersand sponsors of major projects oftenface high stakes with irreversiblecommitments, skewed reward structureswhen successful, and a high probabilityfor failure. This dynamic should changeover time, however, as major projectsmove from initial conception to ramp-upand generate revenue over long periods.
While the front end of a major projecttypically involves less than one-third ofthe total elapsed time and cost, it has adisproportionate impact on its outcome,as most shaping actions occur duringthe planning phase. During the ramp-upperiod, the reality of market estimatesand the true worth of the investmentare revealed. Sponsors may nd thatactual conditions are very different fromexpectations, but only a few adaptationsare possible. Once built, most major
assets have little exibility in usebeyond the original intended purpose.Managing the balance of certaintybetween risk and value is thus areal issue.
At AECOM, we recognize thatmajor projects are not selected,they are shaped. We work withthe sponsor to shape ideasinto viable propositions. Thisthen develops into drivers thatinuence risk, which range fromproject-related issues to broadergovernance. The seeds of successor failure of individual major projectsare planted very early and nurtured overtime as choices and risks emanate fromthe dynamics of the project itself —those associated with the markets andthose related to the political, social andeconomic setting.

AECOM recognizes that the growingdemand for major projects aroundthe world means the bar has beenraised when it comes to strategicmanagement. In response, we haveperfected a dynamic and innovativemanagement style, one which balancesrisk and reward through trust andcertainty, making us certain of ourability to maximize delivery.
Major projects are substantial in valueand complex in composition. They arehigh-prole and high-risk undertakingsthat have a huge impact on society.With all these challenges to address,AECOM recognizes that the success ofa major project is determined by factorsbeyond the control of the project’s
stakeholders, vendors and contractors/consultants. Success demands anexceptional management approach— one that is both strategic andautonomous — the AECOM approach.
Our aim is to provide our clients withexcellence in the planning, developmentand implementation of major projectsby offering a full array of managementand engineering services, frominception to completion — and farbeyond.
It is this clear vision, coupled withour innovation, demonstrable trustand assurance of delivery, that hassolidied AECOM’s reputation as theglobal consultant of choice.
