Publisher: A global provider of architecture, design, engineering, and construction services

AECOM Capital was founded in 2013 as the investment platform of AECOM Technology Corporation and designed to invest in public infrastructure and private real estate opportunities as a joint venture partner that leverages the AECOM Technical and Management Support Services Platform. The AECOM team seeks to play an important role with potential project partners as our clients pursue alternative-delivery options and look for partners who can provide capital along with traditional services. With primary offices located in New York City and Los Angeles, AECOM Capital participates as a joint venture partner, seeking to maximize returns, and provide “best-in-class” project execution capabilities on complex projects through a construction management and services affiliate, Tishman Construction, an AECOM company. AECOM Capital is led by John T. Livingston, Chief Executive, an experienced developer, builder and investor, who was formerly President of Tishman Urban Development Corporation, President of Tishman Construction Corporation and Chief Executive of AECOM Construction Services. Investment Vehicle AECOM Capital Global Fund I is structured as a semi-open-ended fund with seed capital of US $150 MM. As of Q1 2014, AECOM Capital has closed and is under contract for approximately US $2.0 BN of notional real estate investments with best in class operating partners, equating to 5.0 MM gross square feet of Value-Add and Opportunistic investments in Tier-1 gateway cities. Value Proposition AECOM’s global service platform, with presence in more than 150 countries, provides AECOM Capital a built-in platform for accessing proprietary deals, sourcing opportunities both through existing clients and a vast network of employee relationships. AECOM Capital will co-sign completion and repayment guarantees or provide a corporate guarantee as required while, Tishman Construction, can act as the builder on investments, putting AECOM Capital in a unique position where an affiliate of the investor is providing construction services, creating better alignment of interests and control of costs. The AECOM Technical and Management Support Services Platform provides AECOM Capital with significant resources to better understand, analyze, and mitigate varying aspects of complex public infrastructure and real estate joint venture opportunities and add value beyond traditional capital partnerships.
