FROM THE FIELD:
Addressing the Needs of Ukraine and Beyond
Amentum serves US foreign policy to help the people of Ukraine across 33 years of independence and prior critical missions that include diplomacy and international development, architecture and engineering, and construction, for example designing the 30-ton cement cap for Chernobyl and safely disarming weaponry according to the international disarmament treaties across 54 projects, with 25 current projects underway.
The totality of Amentum’s breadth and depth of engineering and international development leadership in Ukraine and Europe includes active networks of thousands of engineers, partners and companies. We quickly build scale, applying the talent of our 44,000 team members to ensure local sustainability from our 4000-plus Professional Engineers across programs. We establish local operations, employ world-class management systems, and build consortia that include bringing international donors together.
Currently serving the US Army under NATO, Amentum helps Ukraine professionally manage the flow of materiel flowing to the national defense from nearby NATO countries with increased accountability that reduces threat, including since the 1990s, capacity-building for Ukraine forces.
Amentum bolsters Ukraine police services, including border police since the outset of the widened invasion in 2022 as part of the Department of State’s International Criminal Investigative Training Assistance Program (ICITAP).
Amentum enabled US-national OSCE monitors along the contact line inside Ukraine according to the 2014 Minsk Agreement on behalf of the State Department. For over 20 years, Rapid Expert Assistance and Cooperation Teams (REACT), has recruited and deployed U.S. citizens for short- and long-term positions across the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) missions in support of USG foreign policy priorities. 60 international observers along the line of contact in eastern Ukraine on behalf of the U.S., supported the OSCE Monitoring Mission to Ukraine. This unarmed, civilian mission observed border areas in Ukraine and provided reporting on the situation and encouraged and facilitated dialogue.
Amentum helps to streamline the multiple flows of materiel from NATO and allied countries, simplifying what might otherwise become a somewhat confusing array of assistance via a unique MOU with the national government.
In Humanitarian Affairs, Amentum was able to use its on-ground presence on Day 1 to assist Ukraine following Russia’s February 2022 re-invasion, delivering assistance to the northern border in record time.
In technology, Amentum has detected and mapped online disinformation threats that aim to upset Ukraine unity.
Amentum also administers the WSP project in multiple countries on behalf of the U.S. Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), including but not limited to Environmental Engineering Services.
