AECOM (NYSE: ACM), the trusted global infrastructure leader, as part of the Unite32 joint venture with Laing O'Rourke, has been selected as the official Delivery Partner of the Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority (GIICA) for Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The joint venture will be responsible for delivering nearly US$5 billion ($AU7.1 billion) in critical infrastructure and venue projects that will define the Games and create lasting benefits for Queensland communities.

“Our appointment as Delivery Partner for Brisbane 2032 reflects AECOM’s unmatched experience delivering complex, multi-billion-dollar programs for some of the world’s most iconic events,” said Troy Rudd, AECOM’s chairman and chief executive officer. “From our role as Official Venue Infrastructure Partner for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games to decades of program management leadership globally, we bring proven expertise and a commitment to creating infrastructure that delivers lasting benefits for communities. This is about more than hosting world-class sport, it’s about shaping cities and building legacies that endure for generations.”

Formed over two years ago, Unite32 comprises a number of Laing O’Rourke and AECOM’s most senior experts from across the globe. Unite32 brings unmatched corporate expertise to the delivery of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games Venues Infrastructure Program, with the consortium being involved in the delivery of every Olympic and Paralympic Games program since London in 2012.

With decades of Games delivery and complex, multi-billion-dollar program management experience, Unite32 is uniquely positioned to manage this once-in-a-generation program, creating infrastructure that will enhance connectivity, drive economic growth, and leave a lasting legacy for Queensland. The Unite32 partnership combines AECOM's global technical expertise in planning, design, and program management with Laing O'Rourke's construction delivery capabilities. This integrated approach will enable efficient delivery of the complex, multi-site program required for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

"This is a proud moment for AECOM. We’ve been shaping Queensland since 1957, and now together with GIICA, we will shape its future, delivering critical infrastructure that will serve Brisbane and the region for generations, supporting community sport, major events, and everyday life long after 2032," said Mark McManamny, AECOM’s chief executive for its Australia New Zealand region.

With a combined design and construction portfolio of more than 150 stadiums and arenas, AECOM has long been a trusted partner in delivering world-class sports infrastructure, helping cities and countries transform major events into lasting opportunities. AECOM's teams are already working across Queensland on critical infrastructure projects, providing deep understanding of local conditions, supply chains, and stakeholder requirements that will be vital to delivering successful Games infrastructure.
