2. The Oculus at World Trade Center Transportation Hub
New York, New York
We erected 12,500 tons of Italian-fabricated steel to create this
dramatic entrance to the World Trade Center Transportation
Hub, designed by renowned architect Santiago Calatrava. The
components – weighing up to 85 tons – needed to be erected to
tolerances as tight as one-eighth of an inch, and some of the welds
are four inches thick.

3. Earning your trust is something we work hard at every day. Above
all else, that is the foundation for a true partnership. Our dedication
to you starts with the team we handpick for each project, and the
commitment each team member makes to achieve your goals. It
continues with the tremendous resources we provide our teams,
including knowledge and capabilities shared across market sectors
and across countries. And it’s supported by Skanska’s industry-
leading values in safety, sustainability, ethics, and diversity and
inclusion.
This is an approach that works, as we consistently deliver projects
that achieve clients’ goals.
Even with our size and global resources, Skanska focuses on
projects of all sizes and complexities. Whether you have a
million dollar interior renovation or a billion dollar public-private
partnership bridge, we have the expertise to successfully complete
both, and both are critical to our success. But more importantly, we
never lose sight of your project being critical to your success.

4. While projects can be complex, our values are easy to understand. At Skanska, guiding our decision making every
day – and on every project – are our Five Zeros, values expressed as qualitative targets.
How we work
Five Zeros
Zero accidents
We value people’s safety and well-being.
Zero ethical breaches
We value honesty and integrity, and are committed to
doing what’s right.
Zero environmental incidents
We value our environment and care about how we
affect it.
Zero defects
We value performance excellence and quality.
Zero loss-making projects
We value financial success: not just for ourselves, but
also for our clients and other project partners.
Our Injury-Free Environment®
We’re striving to achieve zero accidents
through our Injury-Free Environment (IFE®)
initiative, which we launched in 2003. IFE
is a belief – shared by Skanska as a whole
and all our people individually – that
safety is a value not to be compromised
by cost or schedule considerations. With
our IFE culture, everyone on our projects
is responsible to be personally involved in
preventing harm to themselves and those
around them. Beyond it being the right
thing to do, our having safe jobsites benefits
you by allowing for reduced insurance costs
and protecting your good name.Injury-Free Environment ®

5. Stone34
Seattle, Washington
We conceived, financed, developed and then constructed this
highly sustainable and community-oriented headquarters for
Brooks Sports, the running shoe and apparel company. Brooks
CEO Jim Weber said of Skanska: “I have been thinking about how
to describe the space you created, but doing so is hard as the end
result is somewhat beyond words. Thank you for delivering such
an amazing home for our brand.”

6. Helping you achieve green goals
As part of Skanska’s larger sustainability agenda, green construction
plays an important role in ensuring that buildings and infrastructure
– and those who use them – can thrive for generations. We continue
to build on our LEED® expertise to support you no matter what green
goal you have: perhaps it is attaining certification under the LEED
version 4, Living Building Challenge, WELL or Envision standards, or
otherwise achieving net zero energy, waste and water targets.
Our experts will guide you through every step of the green decision-
making process. We’ll help you achieve the first cost and the life
cycle cost that are best for you. And we’ll do so through practical
suggestions that balance environmental and budgetary goals.

Reflecting and supporting local communities
We go to great lengths to reflect and engage with the diverse
communities in which we operate. For instance, we hold an annual
Diversity & Inclusion Week to reinforce the critical nature of this topic
to our employees and project partners nationwide. Also, our Skanska
Women’s Network supports the professional development of all
employees, and is active in cities across the U.S. A diverse and inclusive
workforce helps us provide you with the best solutions.
Similarly, we take great pride in being part of our local communities.
This includes providing construction management training to local
small businesses through two programs: Construction Management
Building Blocks and Building with the Objective to provide
Opportunity through Sustainable Training (BOOST). Such efforts
broaden the pool of qualified trade contractors, so we have an even
better selection for your project.

7. Elizabeth River Tunnels
Norfolk and Portsmouth, Virginia
A Skanska-led team is implementing a $2.1 billion public-private
partnership (PPP) solution to expand capacity of one of the country’s
most heavily traveled two-lane roadways. By combining public and
private financing with innovative development and construction
approaches, our team will complete construction in phases between
2016 and 2018. This includes the project’s centerpiece, a new
tunnel tube below the Elizabeth River. Our consortium is overseeing
operations and maintenance of all the works – stretching 51 lane
miles – until 2070.

8. Florida Polytechnic University
Innovation, Science and Technology Building
Lakeland, Florida
Buildings don’t usually move. But this building does, as its
signature feature is 94 operable louver arms that raise and lower
via hydraulics each day, tracking the sun to shade the 250-foot-
long skylight along the structure’s spine. Said the project’s noted
architect, Santiago Calatrava: “Skanska’s commitment to deliver
a project of such exceptional quality, on a demanding schedule
within the limited budget, all while mentoring a team of local
craftsmen, has, in my opinion, solidified your construction team
as one of the preeminent builders in the nation.”

9. What we do
Building construction
One of the largest U.S. general builders, Skanska has particular
strengths in the healthcare, aviation, education, commercial,
mission critical, life sciences, and sports and entertainment markets.
In many of these sectors, we have centers of excellence in which we
pool our knowledge from past experience and from our experts to
ensure the smoothest possible delivery of your project. We’re at the
forefront of building construction innovation, with our expertise in
multi-system prefabrication, virtual design and construction (VDC),
lean construction and integrated project delivery (IPD). Additionally,
in select metro areas we can self-perform major parts of work,
should that best meet your needs.
Infrastructure, power and industrial construction
From subways to bridges to complexes that treat water,
manufacture goods and produce power, Skanska is one of the
biggest infrastructure, power and industrial builders. We focus
on delivering such projects through design-build, public-private
partnership, engineer-procure-construct and construction
management/general contractor methods, as these allow us to
utilize our significant construction know-how to bring you the
greatest value. We offer particular experience with projects that
exceed $500 million.
Adding greater certainty and reliability to how we deliver these
projects are our 1,000-plus machine heavy equipment fleet, which
ensures that we have the specialty units available and ready
to work when needed; specific virtual design and construction
expertise so your project is designed and planned in the best way
possible; and the capability to self-perform significant portions of
work, giving us direct control over such key project elements as
schedule, quality and safety.

10. Commercial development
Skanska develops customer-focused and highly sustainable
office and multi-family properties in Boston, Houston, Seattle
and Washington, D.C. We approach these development projects
by focusing on the end-user experience and how each project
connects to its neighborhood, all to create high-performing,
flexible workplaces and innovative places to live.
We have invested more than $1 billion in nearly a dozen projects
in those four U.S. markets. We self-finance the majority of these
buildings, enabling us to focus on meeting the needs of such clients
as Brooks Sports, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Tommy Bahama.
Each of our developments aims to achieve a minimum LEED Gold
certification, and we track each project’s carbon footprint to help us
progress on our commitment to sustainability.
Infrastructure development
There’s a great need in our country to replace or improve America’s
highways, tunnels, bridges, public buildings, airports, transit lines
and water/wastewater plants. But public funding is limited. For an
increasing number of these projects, the best solution may be a
public-private partnership (PPP), a delivery method that leverages
available public funds with private sector investment to generate
critical infrastructure projects more quickly, efficiently, and with
a focus on the asset’s entire life cycle. Skanska is a global PPP
leader, having delivered 31 such projects in eight countries using
more than $500 million of our own equity investments. We work
openly and honestly with our clients as their long-term partner,
providing financial support and industry-leading expertise for the
development, design, construction and operation of PPP projects.

11. Nemours Children’s Health System
Orlando, Florida, and Wilmington, Delaware
Our Nemours partnership started with building the 630,000-square-
foot Nemours Children’s Hospital in Orlando, and continued with
the 450,000-square-foot expansion of the Nemours/Alfred I. duPont
Hospital for Children in Wilmington. Said Nemours Foundation CEO
David Bailey: “I have tremendous trust in Skanska, because they
deliver on timelines, budget and process every time, even putting
the interests of Nemours before their own.”
