RIDGEVILLE, S.C., USA: Faithful+Gould, a member of the SNC-Lavalin Group, was awarded a contract to provide program management services for the expansion of a major automobile manufacturing plant in Ridgeville, South Carolina, to accommodate the production of electric vehicles (EVs). Under the contract, the Company will manage the expansion of existing manufacturing areas and various utility systems to support the carmaker's goal to produce only EVs by 2030.

"The auto industry is watching the proposed bipartisan infrastructure bill and optimistic about the $7.5 billion in funding for EVs and national infrastructure for recharging," said Jonathan Marshall, Faithful+Gould Business Unit Director. "We are committed to helping our clients move toward more sustainable solutions like EVs, while helping the U.S. become the leader in EV manufacturing, infrastructure, deployment and innovation."

"This facility expansion is important to our client's U.S. operations and to this South Carolina community," said Luis Centeno, Faithful+Gould Industrial Sector Director. "Taking lessons learned from delivering large-scale, complex projects for manufacturers like BMW, Honda, Michelin and Nokian Tyres, our team will provide construction management expertise and support their vision, while helping provide a state-of-the-art facility for their workforce."

Faithful+Gould has supported clients in the automotive industry for decades. We have served as owner's representative on more than five-million-square-feet of new manufacturing facilities in the southeast just in the last five years, and have on-site teams embedded within each of the Big Three automakers in the U.S.
