FL UOR C O RPO R AT ION 2003 A NNUAL REPORT
GOVERNMENT
Early in the year, Fluor acquired Del-Jen, a leading
provider of outsourced services to the U.S. Government,
particularly in the areas of military base operations and
maintenance services, as well as training and education
services to thousands of disadvantaged youth through the
Department of Labor’s Job Corps Program. Del-Jen
brings an impressive record of performance and expands
Fluor’s capabilities and resumé of experience in this
sizeable market. Early in 2004, Del-Jen acquired Trend
Western Technical Corporation, which specializes in
logistics services and base operations support, further
expanding the company’s government contracting
capabilities. Trend Western has previously teamed with
Del-Jen, and will be fully integrated into the company,
enabling the combined entity to provide a full spectrum of
support services to the Department of Defense at military
installations worldwide.
A third market focus for Fluor’s Government busi-
ness is on federal facilities and homeland security. Fluor
is expanding its portfolio of work with agencies, such as
the Department of State and the Department of Homeland
Security, where the company is leveraging its expertise in
overseas construction, telecommunications, transportation
systems and security infrastructure on projects that protect
national security interests.
Strengthening Fluor’s capabilities in this market was
the acquisition in November of the International Division
of J.A. JonesSM Construction Company (JAJI), which pro-
vides design-build and construction services to the U.S.
Government. JAJI brings significant experience with the
Department of State, which is planning new embassies
and consulates that are larger and more complex than ever
before, with specific focus on increased security. At the
time of the acquisition, JAJI was executing seven interna-
tional projects for the Department of State. Also during
2003, Fluor successfully completed a U.S. Consulate
project in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and won two awards for new
embassy projects in Kazakhstan and Jamaica. With its
strong resumé of experience, the JAJI acquisition provides
a solid platform to expand Fluor’s portfolio of government
business, adding essential execution resources with the
necessary security clearances.
