Exclusive: Three consultants appointed to key roles on airport’s £1.5bn investment programme over next five years
Consultants Atkins, Arup and Jacobs have won four contracts at Heathrow airport, ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø can reveal.
The appointments come as part of Heathrow’s search for a raft of contractors and consultants to run its £1.5bn investment programme over the next five years, known as the Q6 period.
Atkins, Arup and Jacobs will take on responsibility for overseeing a series of major strategic programmes across the airport throughout Q6.
Arup has been awarded two contracts, one to design a programme to improve the airport’s baggage systems and the other to improve its passenger experience.
Atkins will work on designing the programme of asset replacement and Jacobs will put together a programme of work to improve airport resilience.
The contracts are for three years with the potential to be extended for a further two years to cover the whole Q6 period.
As ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø reported last week, five consultants are in the running for broader roles at the airport on its Q6 investment programme. Aecom, EC Harris and Turner & Townsend are competing to provide cost management and commercial services, and EC Harris, Jacobs, Mott MacDonald and Turner & Townsend are battling it out to provide project control services.
