AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting
firm, today announced that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security
(DHS)’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has awarded
AECOM a single-award professional services contract that has a one
year base period with two one-year option periods that can be
exercised at the government’s discretion to provide advisory and
program management services to its four Consolidated Resource
Centers (CRCs) in Winchester, VA (East); Denton, TX (Central);
Sacramento, CA (West) and Guaynabo, Puerto Rico (Atlantic). Under
the contract, AECOM will support FEMA’s Public Assistance grant
program which is focused on repairing and/or replacing damaged
public infrastructure after catastrophic disasters.
“The delivery of FEMA’s Public Assistance Program will allow
state, tribal and local governments, and disaster relief nonprofits
to quickly respond and drive the recovery of communities impacted
by major disasters,” said Lara Poloni, AECOM’s president. “This
critical work ties directly into our Sustainable Legacies strategy,
rooted in our commitment to deliver a better world. Our vision,
world-class technical teams, and leadership in disaster resiliency
uniquely positions us to bring this critical program to
completion.”
CRCs were established to improve the efficiency, precision, and
transparency of FEMA’s Public Assistance Program. AECOM will
support FEMA’s mission to validate, consolidate, collate, and
review infrastructure projects, as well as provide technical
support for Environmental Planning and Historical Preservation
(EHP) and insurance. This critical work provides communities
impacted from disasters with resources to recover more quickly.
AECOM will also help FEMA meet and deliver their equity
commitments, by providing critical disaster support to underserved
communities.
“We’re proud AECOM has successfully interacted with FEMA for
more than 40 years on community resiliency initiatives,” said Karl
Jensen, executive vice president of AECOM’s National Governments
business. “Leveraging our team of highly skilled technical staff,
many who have dedicated their careers to supporting FEMA’s mission,
AECOM is well positioned to enhance the delivery and processing of
these federal grants to build better, stronger, more resilient
infrastructure nationwide.”
