WASHINGTON, DC Amec Foster Wheeler announces it has been awarded the prime contractor position on the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) Architect-Engineering (A-E) 2013 environmental services contract by the U.S. Air Force. This seven-year award follows the contract announcement made by Amec Foster Wheeler last month by AFCEC for Design Services for Military Construction and Military Family Housing.

The new indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract is for the full range of A-E 2013 environmental services. The work scope covers the management and execution of design, and oversight primarily for environmental projects. This includes planning and programming, restoration, quality (compliance and pollution prevention), and conservation work. Amec Foster Wheeler will provide services at multiple government locations to be determined by individual needs.

The contract has an aggregate maximum value of U.S. $500 million for the eight awardees and is expected to reach completion by 2023.

"We are pleased to have been selected by AFCEC once again," said Simon Naylor, Group President Americas. "As a trusted partner we continue to support them in the execution of their important environmental work, bringing together our global expertise to deliver services safely, efficiently and sustainably."
