Public infrastructure services

Smarter infrastructure, stronger communities

For complex infrastructure demands, we combine a practical approach with ingenuity to deliver cost-effective, flexible technical solutions to enhance capacity, improve mobility, protect water quality and build sustainable communities.

From ideas to blueprint to boots on the ground

Whether expanding public transit options for a large metropolitan area or securing a stable water supply for a water-scarce country, major infrastructure projects pose unique challenges. To develop cost-effective, practical solutions, we deliver the technical expertise and resources required to manage programmes and provide support through all stages of a project, offering flexibility in project delivery methods. From large-scale transportation infrastructure projects to water/wastewater treatment, stormwater management and site development projects, we help you execute your projects on time and on budget.

We provide conceptual, basic, and detailed design plans and specifications for a wide variety of civil and environmental projects.  We are with you during the construction phase of your infrastructure project with expertise in construction engineering, inspection and quality control/quality assurance.

Technology-enhanced solutions

We incorporate the latest technologies and involve strategic partners to provide greater value at every point in development of a project, from the use of new materials and techniques, to streamlining systems for faster project delivery. Our expertise in management, planning and design, combined with our understanding of construction, enables us to create resilient solutions that are safe, sustainable and cost-effective.

The pursuit of resilience

Now, more than ever, our customers are tasked with designing, building and operating facilities with significant consideration for sustainability and resiliency features and flexibility. As those challenges grow more diverse and uncertain, it is imperative that resilience planning become a forethought instead of an afterthought in all phases of project planning, design and delivery.

Our partnership with 100 Resilient Cities (100RC) facilitates strategic collaboration with other public- and private-sector members within the network and creates more opportunities to develop innovative solutions all over the world using new technologies and new thinking.

Across multiple sectors and geographies, we have what it takes to be the partner of choice to deliver.
