    AECOM is among the biggest players in the AEC space. In the past year it has made a stra-tegic acquisition with Shimmick Construction, has launched a federal contracting division and is preparing itself to be a leader in infrastructure, in part by announcing an initiative to hire 3,000 workers throughout a six-month timeframe.

    Its success can be attributed to its diverse port-folio and saturation through many markets, including commercial, infrastructure, power plants, stadiums, government and more. But its the people behind the company who are at the core of its accomplishments. One such company leader is 30-year AECOM veteran Dan Mc-Quade, president of the company’s construction services business.

    McQuade recently spoke with Construction Dive about AECOM’s project load, how it hopes to maintain its positive trajectory and the direc-tion it’s headed next.

    This interview has been shortened and con-densed.

    How AECOM is positioning itself to lead the next generation of infrastructure

    you see the company playing in a national pub-lic works program?

    MCQUADE: We are absolutely positioning our-selves to be a leader in the next generation of in-frastructure. We’re the largest transportation engi-neer in the world.

    I think no matter what happens in Washington, DC, there’s going to be an increased amount of infrastructure projects and more design-build. Our country’s infrastructure is aging. I can’t comment about the timing of federal legislation, but I’m convinced there will be more infrastructure work.

    The company has recently come into a couple of notable acquisitions. Where construction services are concerned, how does AECOM decide which deals are going to pay off?

    MCQUADE: Acquisitions are always a strategy; it’s not like something becomes available and we make an offer. We look at the company, at our project strategy and where we think we don’t have the right resources.

    In the western U.S., we have great capacity, great clients, and a lot of infrastructure and transpor-tation projects. We needed the right construc-tion expertise [there] so we acquired Shimmick Construction. We’re focusing on the West Coast for the next six months or so and then we’ll start thinking about geographic expansion.

    Last month, we announced a capital allocation policy focusing on near-term debt reduction and stock buybacks. We’re continuing to look at tar-gets and acquisitions, but with the capital alloca-tion policy now. We’ll continue to make acquisi-tions, but they’ll be niche acquisitions in the next year or so.

    The company’s Q3 reports note that construction was a leader in revenue growth during the period. What kinds of projects or services have stood out in that category?

    MCQUADE: The things really driving revenue are mega-projects. We have at least a dozen proj-ects over $1 billion right now. That’s just mind boggling.

    Some are upwards of $2 billion and approaching $3 billion. That’s what really drives the revenue for the construction business: One Vanderbilt and Hudson Yards, new stadiums. We have a skill set for really big, complicated projects.

  • On the construction side, what would make for a smooth transi-tion from 2017 to 2018?

    MCQUADE: We have had tremendous growth over the past few years. I think we have an advantage with the size and notoriety of the projects we have. I’m in Los Angeles now where we’re build-ing the new Rams stadium. We’re also commissioning a power plant and building a bridge in Long Beach.

    We have really smart, ambitious people in our business, espe-cially younger people who want to work on those projects — they’re top talent. Our ability to win those [big] projects helps us personnel-wise as much as anything because they’re mag-nets for top people.

    That’s how I got into this 30-something years ago. I was work-ing in New York for a small contractor and used to walk by the JP Morgan headquarters on Wall Street and thought, ‘That’s what I wanted to be doing.’ It felt like the big leagues. That was true 30-something years ago and it’s true today for AECOM.

    In 2018, we’re looking at technology more to support and con-trol projects. We’re on a growth curve, we just have to make sure we keep delivering the quality our clients expect.

    DeSilva Gates Construction locates their assets and big savingsWhen you’ve been in business for more than 80 years you’d think there wasn’t much new to learn. Construction company DeSilva Gates has shown that you’re never too old to master the newest tricks.

    Started in 1932 and based in Dublin, California, DeSilva Gates has utilized new mobile enter-prise management (MEM) software to improve efficiency, saving time locating equipment and scheduling maintenance.

    Rich Poppoff, Equipment Superintendent at DeSilva Gates explains the hide and seek’ strug-gle the company was dealing with.

    “We had a general idea where an asset was. Prob-lem was that we’d go out there and couldn’t find it so we would end up renting a piece of equipment instead.”

    “Verizon Connect has allowed us to accurately pinpoint where an asset is and not wander around looking for it.”

    Locating assets quickly has proved to be a major cost-saver in more ways than one.

    Breakdowns can cost up to $20,000 an hour, so delays in getting assets fixed can represent a ma-jor hit to the bottom line. With accurate location information and commercial navigation solutions, runners are delivering replacement parts faster

    than ever before, meaning equipment is up and running again much sooner.

    Reduced over-maintenance: Saving dollars, saving the environment

    DeSilva Gates is not just saving money by reduc-ing downtime; they’ve also eliminated unneces-sary servicing, switching from standard intervals to using engine data to only service when the equipment actually needs it.

    One example is the drain interval on their pickup trucks, which used to be the industry standard of 3,000 miles. With actual engine data, they can minimize waste.

    “Now that we’re tracking the life expectancy of our oil, we’ve extended the oil change on a lot of our vehicles to eight or 10,000 miles.”

    Management is also making better, faster deci-sions about reported defects. Electronic inspec-tions (including paperless DVIRs) have signifi-cantly improved the speed at which defects are managed and resolved.

    “Vehicle inspection reports were three days old by the time we were getting them. Now with real-time data, we get an alert that lets us know someone has checked a box to say ‘hey I have this condition’ and we get to make the choice about whether it’s an out of service condition or whether

    it’s something that can wait until the next sched-uled service.”

    The data’s changing how we drive

    Unsafe driving habits used to go unnoticed but sharing the data with drivers directly through the Verizon Connect Coach app has yielded some surprising results.

    “Once we started sharing that with all the em-ployees we noticed a marked drop in the occur-rence of people speeding.’

    Jeff Workman, Safety Director, DeSilva Gates

    “Verizon Connect has given us a clear window into driver behavior,” notes Jeff Workman, Safety Director at DeSilva Gates. “We’re actually able to describe to someone, look at the number of rough starts … the number of times you were over sev-enty miles [per hour].’’

    DeSilva Gates also use Verizon Connect Coach, a scorecarding solution that uses gamification, to reward and motivate drivers for meeting their safety goals.

    “It’s a really strong motivation for people to im-prove their driving behavior.”
