AECOM Wins DHS Nationwide Infrastructure Modernization Deal
AECOM secured a major US Department of Homeland Security contract to modernize infrastructure nationwide, adding to its growing federal portfolio.
AECOM, one of the largest infrastructure engineering and construction management firms in the United States, has secured a significant contract with the Department of Homeland Security aimed at modernizing critical infrastructure across the country. The award underscores the federal government's continued push to upgrade aging systems amid growing concerns about resilience, cybersecurity, and physical vulnerabilities in national infrastructure networks.
