The award recognizes excellence in management and administration for the successful completion of a public works project.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons is the prime consultant on the Elliott Bay Seawall that stretches 1.5 miles along the downtown Seattle waterfront. The corporation provides overall program management and serves as the engineer of record, delivering design and construction support services to the project team. To meet the aggressive schedule for this one of a kind waterfront resiliency project, the Parsons design team used Parsons\u2019 in house construction resources to inform project design, means and methods, construction sequencing and staging, as well as estimating and risk evaluation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParsons\u2019 engineering and project management approach gave the City of Seattle the added value of independent construction expertise coupled with a team focused on providing a full suite of services to ensure that all project elements were closely coordinated and delivered on schedule,\u201d said Michael Johnson, Parsons Group President. \u201cThat\u2019s the extra-mile service for which Parsons is known.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the original 75-year-old Seattle seawall at risk for collapse in an earthquake, the new Elliott Bay Seawall will be seismically resistant and protect the city\u2019s downtown waterfront from wind-driven waves and the erosive tidal forces of Puget Sound and Elliott Bay. It will support and protect State Route 99, rail lines, the ferry terminal, and major public and private utilities, including power for downtown Seattle and the western seaboard. In addition, the project will restore the salmon migration corridor and improve the marine ecosystem along the seawall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Program Management and
