Company Overview
Atkins offers a full-service ITS team that has long been at
the forefront of ITS development and deployment. We
have assisted clients with their ITS needs by helping them

secure funding to design, build, operate, and maintain

in national and international efforts to shape new
solutions. The breadth of Atkins involvement in emerging
ITS technologies allows our clients to access a pool of

Company History
Established in 1938, Atkins has become one of the largest
international design and engineering consulting firms, with offices
across the United States, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific.
Our experience in the world’s most vibrant markets enables us to
deliver the best, most up-to-date technical solutions to our clients’
infrastructure projects by sharing expertise and knowledge on a
worldwide scale.
At the same time, Atkins understands the vital importance of being
“local”— of having deep roots in the communities in which we live and
work. In the United States, our experience and office network span
the nation and more than half a century. Our understanding of local
requirements, practices, and culture enables us to be true partners
with our clients.
Atkins’ core transportation services in the U.S. highways and structures,
intelligent transportation systems (ITS), tolls, aviation, and transit
markets encompass engineering, planning, construction management,
program management, environmental science, geomatics, architecture,
emergency management, asset management, and information
technologies. Our clients represent a mix of both the public and
private sectors and include regional, state, and federal agencies;
counties and municipalities; development companies; airports;
toll road agencies; and contractors.
Our ongoing success is based on the recognition that client satisfaction
is paramount. As a company that is committed to low-carbon
initiatives, we help our clients fulfill the social and practical challenges
of an environmentally conscious world.
We are widely noted for the high caliber of our technical professionals
and our comprehensive capabilities in key markets. Our reputation
is reinforced by the way we foster continuous learning and quality
improvement among our professionals—and by our goal of increasing
diversity throughout our company.
