There are many specific issue areas that fall under the banner of Transportation & Infrastructure including:
McKeon Group has influence with a wide-array of government organizations like the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, and the appropriate committees of jurisdiction in Congress that provide oversight on these various issues.
We are the best- positioned advocates for expanding the veteran community, unfunded military and homeland security requirements and for helping shepherd smart investments in education and workforce development. We view the annual Appropriations process as an integral part of policymaking and are adept at helping Congress use it to increase oversight of Federal agencies, restore Congressional intent on legislation, limit agency actions, and clarify policy priorities.
For example, we are helping small- and medium-sized businesses reemploy displaced workers now at historic levels, by relaxing restrictive labor regulations. We are also developing next-generation modes of transportation with rechargeable batteries and natural gas, advancing clean, renewable energy programs while smartly and economically drawing upon our Nation’s abundant natural reserves to support the American economy. It is through the continued desire to build a better, more educated and more talented America, on all fronts military, citizen and industry, that drives McKeon Group each day.

McKeon Group AdvantageMcKeon Group maintains an unparalleled depth of talent that can advise all potential clients as to “who, what, when and how” the Federal government can provide the maximum benefit for the use of taxpayer funds, for the benefit of shareholders, the United States military, first responders of all stripes, and the ultimately the American consumer.
The Federal Government and Congress play a critical role in the funding, development, oversight, and maintenance of the country’s transportation and infrastructure networks, systems, and policies. Congress is also critical in shaping future transportation policy responsible for the revitalization and modernization of those networks and systems.
The United States faces a serious infrastructure funding problem and the way the Federal Government has raised money for highways and transits is now in free-fall. The U.S. should be spending more to improve and expand infrastructure, but rather, it still falls short of enough to even maintain the existing system. In this current situation, states and localities have used their own tax mechanisms to fund various infrastructure investments and have become more open to using public-private-partnerships (P3’s) to help take the budgetary stress from solely the public sector.
McKeon Group supports finding new innovative funding mechanisms to pay for many of the needed infrastructure projects in the U.S. We support the Federal Government’s part in encouraging P3’s and are prepared to assist organizations to best formulate a comprehensive strategy in promoting such funding vehicles. In addition to supporting P3’s, we can provide a strategy to help localities and others receive federal credit assistance through the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) by the use of direct loan guarantees, flexible terms, and low interest rates to leverage private capital and financing for these various large scale projects.
