AMEC JV preferred bidder for UK's largest schools PFI

2 February 2005:AMEC plc, the international project management and services
company, announces that an AMEC-led joint venture has been appointed preferred
bidder on the UK's largest schools PFI project to deliver 17 new and two
refurbished secondary schools for South Lanarkshire Council.

'This win reflects our longstanding and successful strategy of selective
investment in PFI, focusing on complex projects where we can bring together our
investment, design, delivery and maintenance skills to secure multiple income
streams,' said Sir Peter Mason, Chief Executive of AMEC. 'Our portfolio of PFI,
urban regeneration and wind energy projects is an important investment for AMEC
that we expect to see making an increasing contribution.'

In addition to its equity investment of around 7 million, AMEC will benefit
from contracts to design, construct and refurbish the schools, redevelop surplus
land around 12 of the sites and provide estate management services over the
30-year concession period, together worth in excess of 290 million. Financial
close is expected in mid-2005 with construction beginning immediately
thereafter, involving a phased delivery with final completion mid-2009. The work
was won through the inspirED joint venture in which AMEC, investment group
Innisfree and Equion have an equal share.

AMEC had around 40 million invested in PFI projects at 31 December 2004 and has
current commitments to invest a further 60 million including South Lanarkshire
Schools, Colchester Hospital and the Docklands Light Railway Woolwich Arsenal
extension, which are currently at the preferred bidder stage. South Lanarkshire
Schools brings AMEC's UK PPP portfolio to 12 projects of which five are
operational with the remainder in the delivery stage.
