AECOM is a global professional infrastructure consulting firm headquartered in Dallas, Texas, that serves governments, businesses, and organizations across three operating segments: Americas, International, and AECOM Capital. The company provides a broad range of services, including advisory, planning, consulting, architectural and engineering design, construction and program management, and investment and development services, targeting public and private clients in the transportation, facilities, water, environmental, and energy markets.
As part of its business, AECOM also invests in and develops real estate projects through its AECOM Capital segment, giving it a more capital-intensive dimension compared to pure engineering consultancies. Originally incorporated in 1980 as AECOM Technology Corporation, the company adopted its current name in January 2015 and has been listed on the NYSE under the ticker ACM since its 2007 IPO.
The company operates within the Construction & Engineering sub-industry, a sector whose revenue is largely tied to global infrastructure spending cycles, public-sector budgets, and long-term urbanization and energy-transition trends. Unlike construction contractors, professional services firms such as AECOM typically follow an asset-light model, generating fees from technical expertise and project oversight rather than owning heavy equipment or taking on primary construction risk.
