AECOM is the CRASH Corporate Patron of the Month for August

CRASH is delighted to announce AECOM as CRASH Corporate Patron of the Month for August.

This is in recognition of AECOM’s contribution to multiple construction projects, helping people who are homeless, and children and adults receiving hospice care by improving and refurbishing the buildings they need. AECOM has offered project management expertise to a homelessness project in Winchester. A design and engineering team at AECOM has also given their time and skills to help a hospice in Manchester, and their fire engineers have helped a homelessness charity in Brighton.

AECOM has also committed to partnering with CRASH in a unique way, by seconding an employee to CRASH.  Vipesh Mistry, who has worked as a Principal Engineer at AECOM for the last 10 years, has joined CRASH as Projects Manager.  Vipesh will work as part of the CRASH team, leading on charity construction projects.

“Corporations can achieve the biggest impact in social value when they build genuine, sustainable partnerships. Providing support through checking in and out in a day does good, but it doesn’t enable in the long term. By bringing Vipesh’s expertise directly into CRASH, we believe we can contribute a genuine step change in its project delivery that will make a long lasting difference. Thank you CRASH for nominating us as the Corporate Patron of the Month.”

‘’AECOM has been a Corporate Patron of CRASH since 2003, contributing to projects and fundraising to support our construction projects with homelessness charities and hospices. AECOM has recently been involved in multiple projects, offering specialist expertise in project management, design and engineering. We could not undertake our vital work to help homelessness and hospice charities without their involvement.  Thank you, AECOM.’’
