AECOM awarded US$49-million USAID task order for Mali Transition Initiative
AECOM announced today it has been awarded a US$49-million task order to act as the implementing partner for the Mali Transition Initiative (MTI) in support of the U.S. Agency for International Development’s Office of Transition Initiatives (USAID/OTI).
The three-year MTI program will provide the U.S. government with assistance in Mali as it works to support broad-based inclusion and participation in the restoration of participatory democracy and increased public access to reliable information. The MTI also will have a special focus on the immediate stabilization needs of northern Mali as legitimate governance structures are re-established there.
“We look forward to assisting this key long-term client as it supports and fosters peace and stability in Mali,” said AECOM Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John M. Dionisio.
