The company will provide technical, project management and
site supervision services under the new program for Ireland’s
public water utility
AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting
firm, today announced it has been appointed to Uisce Éireann’s new
Capital Works PMO Framework and is the only supplier to be
appointed to all four lots on the program. In this role, AECOM will
support Uisce Éireann, Ireland’s public water utility, in its
mission to transform the delivery of water services, including
providing cleaner, safer drinking water and more effective
management of wastewater, and to support social and economic
growth.
“Our history of successful delivery for Uisce Éireann and on
water projects across Ireland positions us to support this
essential program,” said Colin Wood, chief executive of AECOM’s
Europe and India region. “We look forward to continuing our
collaboration with Uisce Éireann, as we apply the experience and
expertise of our teams in Ireland, and around the globe, in the
delivery of the critical infrastructure needed to support its
future operations.”
AECOM will provide a range of services including project and
program management, design, stakeholder consultation, and site
supervision. Projects will include the construction and upgrading
of water and wastewater treatment plants, water and sewerage
networks, and dams and reservoirs infrastructure. The five-year
contract, with the option to extend by a further two years,
replaces and combines several previous frameworks under one
program.
“We are seeing demand for modern and efficient water systems
increasing at a rapid rate around the world, such as the
substantial expected growth in U.S. EPA spending and in AMP 8
investments in the U.K., and we are well positioned to deliver on
our clients’ ambitions with our leading expertise in this market.”
said Beverley Stinson, chief executive of AECOM’s global Water
business. “Having managed some of the world’s most ambitious
drinking water and wastewater programs, our teams are prepared to
apply their globally recognized expertise to support positive
social, environmental, and economic outcomes through safe, clean
drinking water.”
