Analysis
CSCEC AECOM Consultants traces its operating history to a design institute founded in 1959 and transferred into China State Construction Engineering Corporation in 2000. A 2007 restructuring made it a Sino-foreign design and consulting joint venture controlled by CSCEC with AECOM as the U.S. shareholder. [1]
The venture holds Chinese qualifications for integrated Class-A engineering design, consulting, pressure-pipeline design, project supervision and foreign-invested urban planning. Its stated scope spans water supply and drainage, roads, highways, tunnels, rail transit, buildings, landscaping, heating, gas, sanitation, flood control, planning, engineering-procurement-construction work and project management. [1]
The company reports more than 2,400 employees, provincial branches across China and over 20,000 completed assignments accumulated across its institutional history. It attributes rail and metro planning work in Lanzhou, Fuzhou, Shenzhen, Xuzhou and Nanning to technical support from the CSCEC and AECOM groups, showing how the joint venture links a domestic engineering platform with the foreign partner's methods and expertise. [1]
Its work also includes research and international project support. The company has described patented water-treatment and infrastructure technologies, a jointly developed prefabricated underground-pipe-gallery system, and design participation in overseas CSCEC projects; a 2024 CSCEC filing continued to list CSCEC AECOM Consultants among group project participants.

AECOM is a global infrastructure consulting and professional-services company that was formed in 1990 through the merger of five entities. AECOM says many predecessor firms had histories extending more than 120 years, that more than 50 companies have joined the organization since its formation, and that it became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange in 2007. [1]
The company's 2025 Form 10-K describes services including advisory, planning, consulting, architectural and engineering design, construction and program management, plus investment and development services. AECOM provides these services to public and private clients in transportation, facilities, water, environmental and energy markets, working across the project lifecycle rather than focusing on a single construction trade. [2]
AECOM reports its continuing business through Americas, International and AECOM Capital segments. The Americas segment serves public and private clients in the United States, Canada and Latin America, while International covers Europe, the Middle East, India, Africa and the Asia-Australia-Pacific regions; both include planning, design, consulting and program-management work across major infrastructure end markets. [2]
For fiscal 2025, AECOM reported record profitability and double-digit earnings-per-share growth, and its annual-report summary lists a $23.4 billion design backlog and an 80% win rate on its largest pursuits. The company says its Sustainable Legacies strategy guides work on climate resilience, carbon reduction and disaster recovery, while its current strategy also emphasizes investment in artificial intelligence for infrastructure delivery. AECOM's corporate headquarters are in Dallas, Texas. [3] [4]
China State Construction Engineering Corporation
Beijing, Beijing · 1 record in this database
China State Construction Engineering Corporation, known as CSCEC, is a Chinese state-owned investment and construction group officially founded in 1982. CSCEC says it conducts business management through China State Construction Engineering Corporation Limited, the Shanghai-listed company with stock code 601668, and that the wider group includes 38 second-tier subsidiaries, eight listed companies, and more than 360,000 employees. [1]
The group’s activities cover the urban-construction value chain. CSCEC identifies planning and design, investment and development, infrastructure construction, housing projects, engineering contracting, equipment manufacturing, asset operation, and property management among its capabilities. Its published model combines planning and design, investment and development, infrastructure construction, and housing construction so that the group can offer services across multiple stages of a project. [2]
CSCEC’s reported scale makes it a major participant in China’s construction and infrastructure markets. For 2024, the group reported RMB 4.5 trillion in newly signed contracts and RMB 2.19 trillion in revenue; its corporate profile also records a No. 14 ranking in the 2024 Fortune Global 500 and first place in Engineering News-Record’s Top 250 Global Contractors list. These are company-reported rankings and financial figures for the periods specified, not estimates of the group’s future performance. [1]
International operations are handled through dedicated organizations within the CSCEC system. CSCEC International Operations describes itself as the group’s overseas-business platform and says it has 42 overseas establishments in more than 30 countries and regions, undertaking housing, infrastructure, investment and development, China-aided, embassy, and consulate projects. It also says the group has diversified from traditional contracting toward models combining investment, construction, operation, and franchised operation. [3]
CSCEC should be distinguished from China State Construction Engineering Corporation Limited and from specialized subsidiaries that carry out particular design, steel, infrastructure, or overseas activities. That distinction matters in partnership records: a project may name the listed flagship, the state-owned parent group, or a specialized operating company, and those labels do not by themselves establish that every CSCEC entity is a party to the same contract.
