SNC-Lavalin (TSX: SNC) is pleased to confirm the successful completion of its 100-day integration plan following the acquisition of Atkins. The integration plan has identified the cost synergies, business development and revenue synergy opportunities, for delivery partially in 2017 and mainly in 2018. During this period, the business has also completed a review of the company’s organizational structure aimed both at integrating Atkins and even more effectively serving its clients worldwide, across its main sectors and global markets.

I welcome Nick Roberts into our leadership team and congratulate him and Marie-Claude Dumas on their new appointments.”
