From transportation, energy and water systems to enhancing environments and creating new buildings and communities, the vision remains constant — to make the world a better place.
DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY ABS technology started back in 1972 as American Business Systems providing electronic calculators, typewriters and wordprocessing solutions. The business evolved into a data imaging and mini-computer firm as technology changed. What ABS has carried forward is an understanding of how to take care of their clients and deliver innovative solutions that meet the most pressing business and organizational needs.
Today, listed on the Fortune 500 as one of America’s largest companies, AECOM’s talented employees — including architects, engineers, designers, planners, scientists and management professionals — now serve clients in more than 130 countries around the world.
In 1999 the company shifted the focus from digital imaging and archival to network-based IP communications. ABS was so committed to IP-based communications, that they were the first Virginia-based firm to receive Cisco’s IP Telephony certification and remains the longest continuously certified Cisco voice partner in Virginia.

Not only does time-keeping software save time but it saves money as well. Using time and attendance software also cuts out the chance for human error. According to APA studies, there is a 2% error rate when calculating hours. That may seem small, but when you look at the overall cost to the employer, it can add up fast. With affordable solutions such as TimeKron, companies can quickly see a return on their investment utilizing an automated timekeeping system.
Marines have responded to every conflict our nation has seen, but the Marine Corps’ greatest benefit is its ability to respond to the unforeseeable. No one knows where the next threat will emerge, but every Marine knows its arrival is only a matter of time. The Marine Corps offers the most efficient and effective response option when these unexpected threats surface. It is because the Marine Corps maintains a constant state of readiness that our nation is at all times ready.
