SNC-Lavalin changing its name to AtkinsRealis in effort to shed parts of its past
SNC-Lavalin says it is changing its name to AtkinsRealis in a rebranding move after a tumultuous decade for the engineering giant.

The new moniker comes as SNC looks to leave behind the Libya corruption scandal that tarnished its reputation and ensnared the highest office of the Canadian government and to shed the costly backlog of big, over-budget rail contracts that has plagued it for years.
