Leading in technical services for PFI projects

PFI – the way forward

Equity role will not be a presumption

Equity used sparingly to secure top table seat and gear up downstream revenues

Atkins will not be long-term holder of equity

Equity will be recycled to enable further projects to be bid

Lead with our skills in planning, designing, enabling and managing PFI projects

Utilising Atkins core skills

Revisiting Metronet

Applying this model to LUL (Metronet):

Would we invest today?

Answer: under our new criteria we would invest £70m again

We will remain a major player

Winning major projects

Current focus on unrivalled range of niche technical skills

Challenge to harness the power of Atkins to deliver major projects

Enhance wider programme and project management skills

Exploit major project opportunities in UK market (witness success of Bechtel)

We aim to become the automatic choice for major projects in the UK
