The contracts have a combined ceiling of more than US$400 million and cover a range of services, including environmental planning, civil engineering, and architectural design. They will support USACE’s programme delivery across a range of US Department of Defense installations and other federal sites, with an emphasis on resilience, mission readiness, and sustainable development.

Matt Crane, chief executive of Aecom’s US West region, said the company was proud to extend its 60-year relationship with USACE in the Pacific, adding that the firm would apply “locally informed technical expertise and sustainable, resilient solutions” to address the region’s infrastructure needs.

Bane Gaiser, chief executive of Aecom’s global Buildings + Places business, said the contracts would allow Aecom to deploy integrated design and planning expertise, aligning with its broader work across the Indo-Pacific.

The company has delivered several past projects in the region, including upgrades to military installations in Hawaii and the Northern Mariana Islands, environmental impact assessments, and base infrastructure design.

Task orders under the new contracts are expected to span a broad scope of modernisation, coastal engineering, utilities, and logistics-related work, supporting the objectives of the Pacific Deterrence Initiative and other US strategic priorities.

Aecom said its approach will emphasise sustainable design and climate resilience, reflecting site-specific risks across the island and coastal environments where much of the work will take place.
