Services Project Management

Project Value $4 Billion

Journey With AUS is a multi-year, multi-billion-dollar program to expand and modernize Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Key projects within the program include the delivery of a new arrivals and departments hall, a new 20-gate concourse, and various airside and infrastructure upgrades and enhancements, such as a new central utility plant, parking, and baggage handling systems. Once complete, Journey With AUS will enable the airport to accommodate up to 30 million annual passengers in a customer-friendly, sustainable, and secure facility.

The City of Austin selected Hill to provide program management support services (PMSS) for the Journey With AUS program. In this role, the Hill PMSS team is leveraging our best practices and lessons learned from complex aviation programs across the U.S. to supplement the City’s internal program delivery staff and help achieve the goals of the program as planned. Our responsibilities include project controls, grant management, risk management, agency coordination, regulatory compliance, and other as-needed services. Drawing upon our deep bench of aviation professionals and the specialty resources of our small and local business partners, the Hill team is also implementing a highly adaptable staffing approach. This approach allows Hill to deliver our professional services in a cost-efficient manner and scale our PMSS team up or down in accordance with changing program requirements.
