Reportable Segments |
Reportable Segments | 19. Reportable Segments and Geographic Information The Company’s operations are organized into four reportable segments: Design and Consulting Services (DCS), Construction Services (CS), Management Services (MS), and AECOM Capital (ACAP). During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, operating activities of ACAP achieved a level of significance sufficient to warrant disclosure as a separate reportable segment. Prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2017, ACAP’s operating results were included in the corporate segment, and comparable periods were reclassified to reflect the change. The Company’s DCS reportable segment delivers planning, consulting, architectural, environmental, and engineering design services to commercial and government clients worldwide. The Company’s CS reportable segment provides construction services primarily in the Americas. The Company’s MS reportable segment provides program and facilities management and maintenance, training, logistics, consulting, technical assistance, and systems integration and information technology services, primarily for agencies of the U.S. government. The Company’s ACAP segment invests in real estate, public-private partnership (P3) and infrastructure projects. These reportable segments are organized by the types of services provided, the differing specialized needs of the respective clients, and how the Company manages its business. The Company has aggregated various operating segments into its reportable segments based on their similar characteristics, including similar long term financial performance, the nature of services provided, internal processes for delivering those services, and types of customers. During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, an operation and maintenance related entity previously reported within the CS segment was realigned within the MS segment to reflect present management oversight. Accordingly, approximately $130 million of revenue and $124 million of cost of revenue for the year ended September 30, 2016 were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The following tables set forth summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments:
