The task orders were awarded under AECOM’s Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with the U.S. Air Force Civil Engineer Support Agency to provide worldwide design-build and construction services.

The runway reconstruction projects, slated for completion in 2011, involve reconstruction of the runway and taxiway pavements, in addition to replacement of the airfield lighting and approach system at Fairchild Air Force Base as well as milling and repaving the asphalt concrete at Scott Air Force Base. Fairchild Air Force Base is home to the Air Mobility Command’s 92nd Air Refueling Wing, and Scott Air Force Base is headquarters for the Air Mobility Command.
