CapabilitiesSupermajor O&G Client. Faced with the challenge of what had become a patchwork of commercial vendors, custom designed systems and the continuing use of Excel spreadsheets for managing EHS data, the client selected AECOM (as URS) to support them in a project to appraise their existing circumstances, to work with them to develop a more strategic approach and to identify potential solutions. AECOM conducted interviews with representative business units around the world (upstream, midstream, downstream), helped to develop functional and IT requirements, aspirational workflows focused on EHS data management and supported the corporate project management team in developing decision support content for stage gate reviews including business case preparation.In later phases AECOM provided system selection support through the development of scripted demonstrations, vendor scoring and selection, gap analysis, and development of RFIs and RFPs. Once vendor selections had been made, AECOM was selected as the preferred implementation partner, assisting business units in the configuration of the enterprise system, interface design and development, custom report development, user training, user acceptance testing support, content development and quality assurance, and post go-live support.
AECOM continues to provide as needed/requested upgrade and enhancement support, configuration support for business units joining the system, impact analysis and governance support, and serves in an advocacy role with the software vendor regarding client enhancement requests.Major O&G Client. A major Oil and Gas company identified the need to streamline their operations, to reduce the complexity that had evolved over time both operationally and within their EHS organization. Their goal was to drive more consistency effectiveness and efficiently, to reduce duplicative efforts and to allow their team to focus on more value-added activities. AECOM conducted interviews of key stakeholders to identify the “as is” state and areas for improvement, reviewed systems and procedures, created an annotated inventory of the existing IT and non-IT systems (capturing the strengths and weaknesses) and developed a set of recommendations. AECOM is currently engaged in supporting the client in implementing the recommendations which include eliminating several workbook/Access database tools, leveraging existing systems for additional functionality, implementing improvements in existing systems, and eliminating legacy work processes that are no longer necessary.

Front-End Loading (FEL)
AECOM has long recognized the value of effective conceptual and front-end engineering and design efforts as essential to successful project execution. With more than 80 years of successful project execution experience, we have proven that projects which employ a thorough and well-planned FEL effort enjoy a statistically higher chance of success. This approach is consistent with most stage/gate processes and/or FEL stages as well as our structured execution work process.Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) – A Foundation for Detailed
Design
The purpose of the entire FEL process is to provide a firm foundation for the detailed design effort. To minimize overall project costs, it is critical for detailed design to be executed in the most efficient manner possible, eliminating rework and abandoned design. A properly-prepared FEL package provides the guidance for “once through” design by identifying, testing and selecting technical concepts, providing cost guidelines, preparing the project basic engineering, defining the scope of work, placing long-lead equipment on order, and assembling the basis for detailed design. In a true gated process, a comprehensive and thorough FEL package will demonstrate that the project development team has anticipated and addressed all the significant questions that will arise during detailed design and has provided the basis for the project to be designed to the target cost.

CapabilitiesConstructability
Continued focus on constructability is an essential and integral part of the way we do business. We have continually demonstrated that constructability offers the largest single opportunity to reduce total installed costs, as well as long-term operation and maintenance costs. In addition, by proactively employing constructability early in the project, we provide the best possible project definition. Highlighted key elements of our constructability activities include:• A “lessons learned” and “best practices”
constructability database – measures and tracks results as part of our quality process
• A boundary-less approach – able to draw upon experts in operations, maintenance, and maintenance technology
• Experienced construction managers• Our constructability program focuses on
reducing your total installed costs, as well as long-term operation and maintenance costs.
• Collaborative “SMART” planning – a working session that creates a vision of the entire project and the strategy to get there, develops a commitment from participants: owner, contractor, engineer, major equipment vendors, and modular off-site contractor
• Constructability on every project that produces construction documents, irrespective of who performs the construction
• Experience across industry lines starts at the outset of a project and continues far past the physical completion of construction activities
Transition to Detailed Design
During detail design, we complete all engineering design and procure all equipment and materials while producing construction deliverables to support a problem free start-up.• Finalized construction management plan• Issue for Construction (IFC) documents –
mechanical, piping, instrumentation, electrical, civil/structural, architectural
• Control systems configuration• Approved permits• Project data books• Updated risk mitigation planRegardless of your requirements, AECOM has the people, tools, processes and flexibility born of experience to provide our clients with a complete detailed design package representing the highest standards of quality, cost and schedule satisfaction.
At the conclusion of the FEL activities, we arrange all of the pertinent technical, procurement, regulatory, and project controls data into well-organized and complete packages so that our team can efficiently transition to detail design.
Through our membership in the Construction Industry Institute (CII) and from our own direct documentation, we are able to demonstrate that early Constructability efforts typically result in a minimum return on investment of 10-1. That directly translates to reduced costs for both engineering and construction. Constructability also enhances safety and productivity, further reducing costs.

professionalsConstruction Delivery Systems
AECOM has a solid reputation for safety, quality, timeliness, and cost-effective construction expertise.We use two basic construction delivery systems: construction as a general contractor, or construction management. Either can be provided on a stand-alone basis or as part of an EPC or EPCm contract. Also, our construction services can be performed using a union, open shop or merit shop posture.We perform construction by directly supervising craft labor, by coordinating subcontract labor, or a combination of both. Our construction execution strategy is developed for each unique situation considering site conditions, labor availability, potential local subcontractors, and our customer’s preferences.
Construction Management
AECOM is willing to work under a variety of contract compensation models, including firm fixed price, target price, guaranteed maximum price, unit rate and cost reimbursable. Our preference is to be involved in the project during the design development phase. In many cases our customers wish to solicit bids for construction before the design is completed to a level that is necessary for firm fixed price bidding. In such cases we are open to a “conversion” approach where the construction planning and early works can be initiated on a cost reimbursable basis, with conversion to a fixed or target price when engineering can support definitive estimates.Pre-Construction Services
AECOM constructors are skilled in working with engineers, either at AECOM or with the client’s engineers. This ability, when employed in preconstruction, translates to cost effective, timely, and constructible designs. Fewer changes occur and a relationship develops between the engineer and constructor that result in a singular focus of designing and constructing the best possible project for the client. While working with the Engineer to optimize the design, AECOM constructors plan the execution phase, provide input into procurement of material and subcontracts, and prepare mobilization of equipment and craft. The cost of the pre-construction effort is minimal in comparison to the significant savings in schedule and installation cost.
