Rudd, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of AECOM, discussed the company's third-quarter 2026 results during an earnings call on August 5, 2026. He reported that AECOM's backlog increased 13% to an all-time high, citing record quarterly wins and a 1.6 book-to-burn ratio across the business, including 1.8 times in the Americas. Rudd attributed growth to infrastructure design orders and noted that international margins improved due to a pivot to growth, with Australia and the UK as the largest margin contributors. He also expressed confidence that margins would continue to rise, with expectations to exit fiscal year 2028 at over 20%. Rudd addressed a project outcome that he said the company was disappointed with, providing context that the project was bid in 2019 and that AECOM had since changed leadership and tightened risk controls. He stated that the company had decided years ago to stop pursuing design-build work for P3 clients in the construction management business due to inherent challenges, and that this project would not clear current risk hurdles. Additionally, Rudd mentioned that investments in delivery methods were opening new markets, including commercial, healthcare, and data center sectors within buildings and program management.
