Jacobs wins SACMS contract for transportation programme
Jacobs has significant experience in the sector including the UK’s Crossrail and Grand Central Madison in New York City
A contract for strategic advisory and commercial management services (SACMS) has been inked between Jacobs and Metrolinx’s Capital Projects Group. Metrolinx is said to be overseeing the largest transportation investment in the history of Ontario, Canada.
Under the five-year SACMS, Jacobs will establish a framework of vendor firms that Metrolinx can call upon for current and future work for a range of services related to the delivery of its capital projects.
“As we continue our work with Metrolinx, we’ll integrate and leverage our local and international resources to meet their evolving needs. With our global program management experience including delivering UK’s Crossrail and Grand Central Madison in New York City, we’re well-positioned to support Metrolinx transformative projects as they pioneer progressive contracting and delivery models and prepare for introducing reliable new rail services,” said Jacobs Vice President and Program Director of Major Programmes, Neil Walker.
Metrolinx is working on several projects including the expansion of GO Transit, the expansion of subway systems in the Greater Toronto area, and a scheme to make fast, frequent and reliable transport more accessible.
