The world has changed. The digital and physical environments have converged, technology is now embedded in our critical infrastructure, and the data it generates is a vital foundation that supports our daily lives.
Along with this new world structure come new problems and a need for comprehensive physical and cyber resiliency that can—in and of itself—present complex challenges. Governments and businesses must find a framework that addresses the needs of this new reality—one that enables agencies and organizations to protect, interpret and act on the information that data supplies, which are critical steps to anticipating and mitigating disaster. This framework must also allow them to be resilient and recover from disasters when they occur.
At AECOM, we understand the challenges of this newly-technologized world.
Our converged resilience approach aligns narrowly focused disciplines into an all-encompassing program. We know that each form of data stream is interconnected and that all data streams must be viewed holistically. We also possess a deep understanding of the need for resilience, so that physical and cyber data can be recovered quickly and efficiently with as little disruption as possible.
Our expertise includes extensive experience in cyber security, creating safe, secure, effective and economic solutions focused on mission continuity. We design, build and operate facilities, systems, and associated infrastructure for virtually every market sector. We know that operational resilience must address wired and wireless cybersecurity, physical security and safety, environmental impact, process improvement and an executable governance structure. Our cybersecurity, information technology and risk experts work closely with our architects and engineers, providing tailored solutions that minimize risks, align security investments to industry-specific standards and greatly reduce the impact of an incident.
Protecting people and the environment is a critical aspect of responsible, successful business operations and is expected not only by regulators, but by stakeholders and the general public.

No one has more experience with alternative delivery models around the world in more markets than AECOM. From public-private partnerships and design-build, to integrated project delivery and construction management-at-risk, AECOM can help you find the most suitable approach for your needs.
Overcome a financing hurdle. Guarantee cost. Reduce risk. Find efficiencies between planners, designers and builders. There are a lot of reasons to look to alternative delivery methods.
Alternative delivery can often surmount hurdles that the traditional plan-design-bid process can’t, to achieve more desirable outcomes. Each approach has its own advantages and drawbacks. It’s worth exploring all the options to find the methods that best fit an owner’s objectives, timelines and constraints.
Integrated project delivery, with its continuous collaboration between the designer, builder and owner, allows direct sharing of data between the design and construction teams, and can reduce waste and improve efficiency.
A design-build approach merges design and construction responsibility into one company with a single point of accountability and a single contract, allowing for phased construction and simplified management.
Public-private partnership provides a financing mechanism that transfers financial, technical and operational risk of the project to a private party while guaranteeing performance.
AECOM works with clients to understand the unique conditions of their project and identify the most appropriate approach.
As infrastructure funding gaps escalate worldwide, Public-Private Partnerships (P3) offer an increasingly valuable solution to the financial and administrative constraints of the public sector.
AECOM is a leader in P3 across a broad range of markets, including transportation, buildings, energy and water. Participating in more than 650 P3 projects globally, we have the capability to serve as contractor, designer, technical advisor and to provide financing.
Our P3 services have helped generate major award-winning projects, including the 2009 Northeast Calgary Ring Road in Alberta, Canada. From the Port of Miami Tunnel to the Long Beach Court Building, our professionals have been instrumental in developing unique design solutions that produce significant value for money in the overall project cost. Additionally, our services have been instrumental in assisting concessionaires to reach financial close on countless projects, and in supporting governmental agencies with both project-specific and programmatic advisory roles.
AECOM’s P3 Advisory provides seamless integration of technical, economic and contractual expertise across all asset classes and P3 markets for both the public and private sectors. We draw on the resources of our technical expertise, traffic and revenue forecasting, and sociopolitical and legislative insight while providing the full range of services required to assist in the delivery of P3 bids and other procurement, refinancing and development activities.
AECOM’s Converged Resilience services support the continuity of critical business, information technology and physical infrastructure.
