Business Wire
AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting
firm, today announced it has been selected by the Port of Seattle
to lead the S Concourse Evolution at Seattle-Tacoma International
Airport (SEA). AECOM will oversee design and engineering, working
closely with design partner HOK, to modernize the facility through
a combination of renovation and new construction. This critical
work will focus on restructuring and repurposing the existing
seven-level, 350,000 square foot space to increase operational
efficiency, meet code requirements, and enhance passenger
experience.
“Our relationship with SEA dates back over two decades and we’re
looking forward to building on that legacy, deploying practices and
bringing expertise honed from our extensive aviation experience to
one of the nation’s most visited airports,” said Matt Crane, chief
executive of AECOM’s U.S. West region. “We are committed to
creating a new S Concourse that is an exemplar in airport design,
passenger experience, and safety – bolstering its standing as a key
transportation hub to the Pacific Northwest.”
With nearly 46 million passengers in 2022, SEA saw a decade of
record growth through 2019 and is forecast to reach pre-pandemic
travel volumes in 2024. It is one of only five 4-star certified
airports rated by Skytrax in the U.S. and was named Best Airport in
North America two years in a row. The project will transform the
existing concourse into an inviting destination for today’s modern
traveler while accommodating the ongoing growth. AECOM’s scope
encompasses project management, planning, and design, which
includes leading a diverse team of local and global consultants.
Planned upgrades include redevelopment of the recently vacated
Federal Inspection Services (FIS) and Customers and Border
Protection (CBP) spaces into duty free shopping, dining, and
retail, a reconfiguration of the concourse level for more efficient
circulation, an expansion of the Penthouse level to provide
additional premium lounge space and upgraded structural systems
through the addition of new gate pods.
“We are thrilled to be key players in the S Concourse Evolution
and support the Port’s vision to revitalize the 50-year-old
facility into a modern gateway for international and domestic
travelers,” said Richard Whitehead, chief executive of AECOM’s
global Buildings + Places business. “This project blends our
multidisciplinary work on major international airports, global
technical expertise, and familiarity with SEA’s existing
infrastructure to meet the rapidly evolving priorities for the Port
of Seattle.”
“Supported by deep global aviation expertise and a track record
of success at SEA, we are proud to play a vital role in shaping
this gateway to Seattle,” said Mark Southwell, chief executive of
AECOM’s global Transportation business. “We look forward to
collaborating with the Port of Seattle, SEA, and our Buildings +
Places team on this transformative project.”
Additionally, AECOM will focus on implementing strategies that
seek to support the Port’s energy and sustainability goals,
implementing the Sustainability Design Approach (SDA) to analyze
potential sustainable strategies. The SDA will be refined to
propose and measure design strategies across major resource
categories of energy, carbon, site and landscape, water, waste,
materials, health and wellness, transportation, habitat,
resiliency, and the circular economy.
The SDA will leverage learnings from AECOM’s industry-leading
Sustainable Legacies ESG strategy, which is advancing
sustainability initiatives that deliver positive impacts both at
AECOM and in communities around the world. The strategy integrates
four key pillars that will embed sustainable development and
resilience across the Company’s work, improve social outcomes for
communities, achieve net-zero carbon emissions, and enhance its
governance.
