“Through this report, our Asia operation provides an example of AECOM’s overall progress in maintaining sustainability as one of our top priorities,” said Gary Lawrence, AECOM vice president and chief sustainability officer.  “I am pleased to see the importance of sustainability being deeply integrated into AECOM’s culture around the globe.”
