A little-noticed lawsuit filed by a minority-owned design and engineering firm that claims it’s been defrauded by AECOM, manager of the Broward School Board’s long-troubled $800-million capital improvement bond program, is headed toward trial next summer.

Florida International Consulting Engineers Design (FICE Design) is suing the School Board, AECOM Technical Services and Kathleen Langan, AECOM’s director for the Broward School Board’s SMART bond program from August 2020, when AECOM was hired, until March 2024. Today, Langan is an AECOM senior vice president based in Potomac, MD, according to her LinkedIn page.
