AECOM Technology Corporation (NYSE: ACM), a leading provider of
professional technical and management support services for public and
private clients in more than 140 countries around the world, announced
today that AECOM has been awarded a project management contract for the
redevelopment of the Kwong Wah Hospital, one of the major acute
hospitals in the Hong Kong Hospital Authority’s Kowloon West Cluster.
The redevelopment plan aims to expand the capacity of the hospital to
meet the increasing demand for health care services in the Kowloon West
Cluster.
The contract follows AECOM being awarded similar work on the expansion
project for the nearby United Christian Hospital during 2012.
“We are proud to win our second major health care project from the Hong
Kong Hospital Authority within the last year,” said John M. Dionisio,
AECOM chairman and chief executive officer. “This assignment clearly
demonstrates AECOM’s strength within the health care sector, reflecting
our innovative work in this area.”
AECOM will also represent the Hospital Authority as the manager of other
design consultants throughout the Kwong Wah Hospital redevelopment’s
project period, as well as the resident site staff throughout
construction.
The redevelopment is scheduled for completion during 2022.
