AECOM's People Spotlight series provides an inside look at the company's technical experts around the world. One expert is Agata Kałużyńska, a project manager from AECOM's Buildings+Places (B+P) business line in the Europe and India region. Agata shares insight into her project management inspiration and work.

Agata is a project manager in AECOM's Warsaw, Poland office and works predominantly on the United States Department of Defense (U.S. DoD) projects. Agata has been with AECOM since 2019, originally as a project manager assistant in AECOM's Railways team, before becoming a certified project manager in 2022. Agata's projects for the U.S. Government and Polish Provided Infrastructure (PPI) Program are located in Poland, Germany, and the Benelux.

On her projects, Agata always tries to pay special attention to environmental issues, and is also the Green Team Leader in AECOM's Poland office. Agata therefore greatly appreciates the company's strong commitment to Environmental, social, & corporate governance (ESG) and sustainable activities.

Working on challenging projects for AECOM

"My favorite project at AECOM, which I’m still working on, is the design of the U.S. Army V Corps’ headquarters in Poznan, Poland. It’s a challenging project for which we started work in 2019. The design goal of this project is to provide architect-engineer services required for complete preparation of design documents for construction. As designers, we must ensure that the design is compatible with applicable U.S. Army Europe and Africa (USAREUR) / V Corps, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Host Nation (HN) requirements. The scope of work includes the renovations of three buildings, exterior measures and core facility components, and the organization’s parking lot," says Agata.

A professional learning experience 

"Working on this project has been an extraordinary professional learning experience for me – not only regarding working with our client, the U.S. Government, but also because of the approach to managing a project in an optimal way, where the different phases are very time-driven. Furthermore, working with an international team of specialists from Poland, Spain, Germany and the U.S. has made my experience even more rewarding," explains Agata.

"One of the greatest benefits of working on DoD projects is the opportunity to directly impact and influence local communities as well as the world at large. The work that is done in the DoD has a mission that impacts people, places, technology, innovation, safety and security. And it’s not just related to increasing security within Europe or around the world, but also to the development of communities in places where DoD projects are located, through new jobs or infrastructure development. I also can’t forget about my activities in the Green Team and the implementation of the ESG strategy. I’m especially proud to work with fantastic people who care about the needs of the communities we serve," adds Agata.
