The passage of the Austin Independent School District’s (Austin ISD) $2.44-billion bond program has ushered in a historically transformative period for the district and the people it serves. Austin ISD’s emphasis on “Equity by Design” – which offers significant scholastic benefits to historically underserved and disadvantaged students and communities – stands to create sweeping improvements throughout the region in terms of state-of-the-art facilities that demonstrate modernization and safety.
STV, in joint venture with Vanir and in collaboration with AECOM and Jacobs, is providing program management and construction management services for the bond program. The team has also implemented new digital tools and platforms that are providing the project team with a clearer line of sight of construction progress, along with other crucial information to help shape the program.
To strengthen Austin ISD’s “Equity by Design” program, STV is actively engaging with the community including involvement with the Community Bond Oversight Committee and collaboration with Historically Underutilized Businesses.
