LOS ANGELES — AECOM Technology Corporation acquired LAN Engineering of California. LAN, with nearly 200 employees and seven offices, provides engineering services — including program/project management, design development, and construction management consulting — primarily to public clients. The acquisition of LAN strengthens AECOM’s transportation practice.

“LAN’s construction-management and design expertise enhances AECOM’s leadership position in the transportation market,” said John M. Dionisio, AECOM president and CEO. “We look forward to the new opportunities that we will pursue with LAN on board, and we welcome LAN staff into the AECOM family.”

Peter Lim, LAN CEO, noted that joining AECOM will expand LAN’s network of expertise as well as its geographic reach. “In joining AECOM, we are able to offer our clients a more comprehensive suite of services. Additionally, by joining the number-one transportation firm in the country, we are able to expand our reach,” said Lim.

LAN President and Chief Financial Officer William Nascimento added that this transaction will also benefit LAN employees. “This evolution of our business is very exciting for our employees. By joining AECOM, and its global network of expertise, our staff has increased opportunities to develop their careers and work on an exciting array of projects.”
