AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting
firm, announced today it is part of the winning team that has been
awarded a five-year, single-award indefinite delivery, indefinite
quantity contract to support the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) in its mission to protect and secure the nation’s
drinking water and wastewater infrastructure. As part of a project
team led by General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), AECOM
will provide engineering subject matter expertise in technical,
cyber, education and program management services to the EPA Water
Infrastructure and Cyber Resilience Division.
“Through our Sustainable Legacies strategy, we’re continuing to
win work with organizations driving transformative environmental
progress, prioritizing equity and resilience across our projects,”
said Beverley Stinson, chief executive of AECOM’s global Water
business. “As we expand access to clean, safe water resources
worldwide, we’re proud to work with GDIT in support of the EPA to
safeguard this essential resource for current and future
generations.”
AECOM will partner with GDIT to provide technical assistance,
public engagement, security and resilience expertise, and program
management support, studying existing risk management practices and
developing guidance and training efforts to strengthen the EPA’s
hazard preparedness, response, and recovery capabilities.
Assessing baseline resiliency and the impacts of natural and
manmade threats across the water sector, AECOM will identify and
deliver advanced hazard mitigation approaches for water systems
nationwide. This will involve creating incident-specific emergency
response plans, updating facilities design standards, and driving
training for governments, utilities, tribal authorities, public
health agencies, and other stakeholders.
“Amidst climate change, cybersecurity risks and other emerging
hazards, resilient water infrastructure has become paramount—and
demands multidisciplinary expertise to successfully deliver,” said
Drew Jeter, chief executive of AECOM’s Program Management global
business line. “Our broad global resources, spanning water
treatment and distribution, climate resiliency, program management
and digital innovation, uniquely equip us to partner with GDIT to
help protect the U.S. water sector, readying it for a new
generation of challenges.”
