Los Angeles (May 19, 2021) — AECOM, the world’s premier infrastructure consulting firm, announced today that it is ranked #2 nationwide on VIQTORY’s list of 2021 Military Friendly® Supplier Diversity Programs. Additionally, AECOM is recognized as a Military Friendly® Employer and Military Friendly® Brand. These combined rankings elevate the firm’s status to a 2021 Military Friendly® Company.

“We’re honored to receive this recognition from VIQTORY and will continue demonstrating our steadfast commitment to our military employees, families, and teaming partners,” said Karl Jensen, executive vice president of AECOM’s national governments business. Mr. Jensen served more than 20 years in the U.S. Navy and Navy Reserve as a naval aviator and aerospace engineering duty officer. “We deeply value the outstanding contributions the military community brings to our infrastructure work, including the hundreds of veterans and reservists that we call our colleagues as well as the veteran-owned businesses that participate in our industry-leading supplier diversity program.”

Military Friendly® is the standard that measures an organization’s commitment, effort, and success in creating sustainable and meaningful benefits for the U.S. military community.

“The Military Friendly® lists represent a growing number of organizations who are taking a holistic approach on engagement, retention, and support in the military and service member community,” said Kayla Lopez, Director of Military Partnerships, VIQTORY. “Their dedication, persistence, and continued evolution is what sets these companies apart. A holistic approach is what creates scalability and leads to success.”

The company has a longstanding commitment to those who serve as well as those who have returned to civilian life, partnering with organizations that assist veterans both during and after their military service.

Since 2003, the Military Friendly® lists have set the standard for organizations to provide the best opportunities for veterans.
