program


AECOM, a leading provider of professional technical and management support services for

government and commercial clients around the world, announced today that it has won a contract

to provide audit services to the Australian Government’s $175M Green Loan Program.

household and company audits. These audit services will contribute to the Australian Government’s

confidence in the investment it has made in the sustainability of Australian households. 


AECOM’s Technical Director – Sustainability and Climate Change, Scott Losee, said this contract

win underlined AECOM’s commitment to and capability in the area of sustainability. “We are very

excited to be involved in the Australian Government’s Green Loans program,” said Mr Losee. 


“This program allows us to continue to deliver on AECOM’s purpose, ‘to enhance and sustain the

world's built, natural, and social environments’. This partnership with the Australian Government

underlines our commitment to this mission and allows us to be a part of making a real difference in

combating climate change in Australia.” 


So far, the Green Loans program has seen over 250,000 assessments completed, and there are

4,000 assessors registered with the Australian Government. This contract will run until March 2011,

with an option for a two-year extension.
