MONTREAL, Sept. 12, 2024 /CNW/ - On September 10th, CIMA+, one of the largest private consulting engineering firms in Canada, won an Award in the Megaproject category, during the 2024 FIDIC Global Infrastructure Conference in Geneva. This event brings together industry professionals, and the International Federation of Consulting Engineers recognizes, highlights, and rewards impactful global infrastructure projects and leaders known for their excellence.

CIMA+ was distinguished for its contribution to the South Shore segment of the Réseau express métropolitain (REM) project, the only Canadian project to receive an award.

CIMA+ thanks CDPQ Infra for its trust, its partner Hatch, as well as SETEC Canada, STGM architecture, and LEGICO for their significant collaboration in the success of this major project.
