PROGRAM MANAGEMENT C&S’S PROGRAM MANAGEMENT CAPABILITIES TAKE THE BURDEN OFF OF OUR CLIENTS, ENHANCING THE LEVEL OF SERVICE THAT RESIDENTS RECEIVE WHILE STRENGTHENING TIES AMONG THE COMMUNITY, THE AIRPORT, AND LOCAL AGENCIES. C&S has made sound attenuation our business so

to your program, whether a single phase residential

of running the airport. Our services include

phase program with various buildings that would be

that airport officials can get back to the business community and contractor outreach programs and educational and informational campaigns for the public, including project websites and

printed materials in multi-lingual formats. This

ensures participants can learn and understand what the program has to offer and how it can make a positive difference in their daily lives.

We take full advantage of the latest technologies, a full support staff, and state-of-the-art

equipment to help ensure your projects are completed on time and on budget. Our

customized services are unique in our industry,

which enables us to bring added value to projects of any size. We customize our process to tailor fit

sound attenuation program or a more complex multieligible for treatment.

Should one of our sound attenuation programs need specialized services, our in-house staff of engineers,

architects, environmental scientists, and sustainability experts, among others, can quickly jump in and

address any issue that may arise on a project. This

immense depth of resources can effectively streamline the delivery of even the most complicated projects.

Grant applications, reimbursement requests, supporting

documentation, and the submittal of required FAA forms can rapidly consume the already overextended staff of

even the largest airport. The C&S team will assume this burden on your behalf.

C&S has managed hundreds of Airport Improvement

Program (AIP) eligible projects. We have developed an in-depth knowledge of FAA regulatory documents by administering and managing the entire grant process for many of our airport sponsors. Our professional

staff and full‑time grant administrators work every day under the guidelines of FAA Order 5100.38D, Airport Improvement Plan Handbook, which governs the

eligibility of all FAA‑funded projects. A ​ s a result, our

clients receive prompt and regular reimbursements from the FAA and the state.

WHEN AIRPORT FUNDING IS COMPETITIVE AND SCARCE, IT IS CRITICAL THAT WE HELP FIND ALL AVAILABLE FUNDING FOR PROJECTS. AT C&S WE BELIEVE IT IS IMPORTANT TO ASSIST AND GUIDE AIRPORTS TO OBTAIN THE FUNDING NECESSARY FOR THEIR PROGRAMS.

GRANT SUPPORT

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT WE FIRMLY BELIEVE IN A SPIRIT OF PARTNERSHIP AMONG ALL STAKEHOLDERS FROM THE OUTSET OF THE PROGRAMS WE MANAGE.

C&S’s approach to stakeholder engagement has proven to produce successful project outcomes as we integrate partnering in each program from the start. C&S

facilitates a partnering session to include stakeholders

that leads to personal commitments on how to engage towards project success and specific actions when challenges arise during program implementation.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH WHILE AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT BRINGS GROWTH AND OPPORTUNITY TO THE COMMUNITY, IT MAY ALSO BRING CHALLENGES TO AIRPORT OWNERS. C&S TAKES A PERSONALIZED APPROACH TO COMMUNITY OUTREACH.

Communities adjacent to airports experience significant noise impacts and the people living in these areas have high expectations for airport sponsors to provide relief.

A sound attenuation program is one of the best options available to airports to mitigate these effects. No other airport development project has as much visibility

or potential for building relationships with the community as a sound attenuation program.

Our approach is always to surpass outreach typical of airport sound attenuation programs by building deeper connections between the airport and the

communities they serve. In addition to conducting

workshops, presentations, small group meetings, and developing educational campaigns and materials, C&S meets one on one with those outside of the

engagement process to dig deeper into the fabric of the community for a stronger connection.

While a thorough design assessment can

significantly reduce problems and cost escalations during construction, there is no substitute for

vigilant inspection of the installations. Our unique

approach will not only ensure that the most minute details of the inspection process are reviewed, but will also allow for a more accurate, consistent and

efficient process by which to accomplish that work.
