Jacobs has been selected alongside a team of partners to support Manchester Airports Group’s (MAG) Airfield Infrastructure Framework.
This initiative will enhance MAG’s three UK airports: Manchester, London Stansted, and East Midlands, over the next five to eight years. The framework is designed to advance MAG’s airfield development programmes and ongoing investments in airport infrastructure.
MAG Procurement and Contracts Director Terry Fitzmaurice said:This new framework will foster a more collaborative relationship between MAG and its designers and contractors, which will help MAG meet its capital investment projects across all three airports. Working more closely will also help MAG meet its sustainability targets - including net zero operations by 2038 - through more sustainable supply chain practices.
Under this contract, Jacobs will deliver project planning, advisory services, design, and multidisciplinary engineering to enhance strategic airfield infrastructure at all three airports.
Key projects include:
- Airfield improvement works
- Runway resurfacing
- Aircraft stand development
- Airfield ground lighting systems
Jacobs Executive Vice President Kate Kenny said:We are delighted to continue our relationship with MAG and support the Group’s capital development priorities to enhance passenger experience, drive sustainability progress and advance connectivity in the UK. With infrastructure resiliency becoming ever more critical, our focus is on delivering projects that not only address today's demands but are also adaptable to the evolving future needs of aviation.
