Business Wire
Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) announced that AMECO, its tool and
equipment unit, celebrated the grand opening of its new global
headquarters today in Greenville, South Carolina.
Fluor designed and engineered the new LEED-certified space that
features collaborative working space and the latest technology.
Senior executives from Fluor and AMECO and elected officials and
employees attended the celebration of the new headquarters.
“AMECO’s expertise in tools and equipment for large construction
projects is an integral part of Fluor’s construction offerings and
is just one visible element of Fluor’s commitment to increasing its
self-perform construction work,” said Garry Flowers, president of
AMECO and head of Project Support Services for Fluor.
“With the demand for AMECO’s capabilities and services, it was
apparent just how much AMECO had outgrown the capacity of the old
building, which had been used for 20 years as a multipurpose
facility,” said Tracey Cook, AMECO’s vice president of Global
Operations. “By consolidating AMECO's staff resources into one
building in one location, we are better able to effectively and
efficiently execute project work no matter where it is located
throughout the world.”
With AMECO’s deep roots in Greenville, the company elected to
construct its new facility on the grounds of the property that has
housed AMECO operations for nearly 40 years and is familiar to
customers, suppliers and contractors.
