Hill International, a Mount Laurel-based infrastructure of change firm, announced Monday it was selected by Los Angeles World Airports to provide program services for various airfield, landside, terminal and utility and infrastructure improvements at Los Angeles International Airport, better known as “LAX,” and Van Nuys Airport.
LAWA’s capital improvement program aims to modernize its vital infrastructure. The program services will be provided through a pool of multiple award task order contracts collectively valued at $950 million, spanning a period of five years with two one-year options.
As part of this initiative, Hill’s services may include staff augmentation, project management, construction management and project controls support throughout the program lifecycle.
The Hill team will support LAWA in managing a diverse network of stakeholders and complying with city, state, federal and other regulatory agency standards.
“Hill has assembled an extraordinarily diverse group of consultants to meet LAWA’s CIP challenges,” Hill SVP J.P. Villamizer said. “Our team’s depth of experience will be key to successfully executing these projects for LAWA.
“With our thorough understanding of LAWA’s operations, especially through our project controls contract across the airports, we’re uniquely positioned to deliver the work efficiently and cost effectively. Hill is passionate in sharing LAWA’s commitment to workforce development, diversity and economic benefits, and we will leverage our team’s inclusivity to create a legacy of economic vitality.”
Hill CEO Raouf Ghali was thrilled by the selection.
“Receiving continued trust from LAWA in our ability to deliver high-priority projects is a great honor,” he said. “This enduring partnership has made a substantial impact on the region’s aviation market over the years, and I look forward to our team’s critical role in supporting LAWA’s transformative projects that will deliver numerous benefits to Los Angeles and the greater Southern California region.”
