Aecom Ingenieria, a subsidiary of the American group Aecom and the local design market leader, with a turnover of 11.4 million EUR recorded in 2013, was involved in the development of large-scale public investments, such as the designing of the highways Orăştie-Sibiu (batch 1 and 2), Lugoj-Deva (batch 1 and 2) and Timişoara-Lugoj (second batch). Furthermore, since 2013, Aecom is working on the rehabilitation of the aircraft stationary platforms for the International Airport "Mihail Kogălniceanu" (Constanţa) as well as for the new PUG of the capital city, which will be completed in 2015. The US firm Aecom is present in Romania since 2002, having over 160 employees.
