AECOM white paper calls for larger private-sector role in U.S. infrastructure

LOS ANGELES — AECOM Technology Corporation released a white paper titled, “Fostering a Larger Private-Sector Role in United States Infrastructure.” The paper examines the extent to which the nation’s infrastructure assets need urgent attention and/or repair as well as innovative funding mechanisms that can help address those needs, especially public-private partnerships (P3s). AECOM supports the idea that P3s can provide an important avenue for advancing infrastructure projects and, consequently, improving the country’s long-term economic growth, competitiveness and quality of life.

AECOM Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John M. Dionisio shared the white paper with members of a Senate Democratic Caucus during a policy briefing on infrastructure in Washington, D.C.

The paper is available on AECOM’s website at www.aecom.com/usinfrastructure, and an executive summary can be found at www.aecom.com/usinfrastructureexecutivesummary.
