Louisiana National Guard Readiness Center Construction Project, Bogalusa, LA

Global Project Management provided project management / project controls, and cost management for this design-build construction of a new 42,624 SF Readiness Center for 114 soldiers and the infrastructure to support this facility. Location is on a fifteen-acre tract of state property on Highway 10. Project value was approximately $16,000,000.

The Louisiana Army National Guard Readiness Center was a permanent masonry type construction, with standing seam roof, concrete floors and mechanical and electrical equipment with emergency power generator backup. Supporting facilities included weapons cleaning, maintenance, issue, turn-in sheds, military vehicle parking and access roads and POV parking, security fencing and dark motor pool lighting, vehicle wash system and pump house, loading ramp, flammable materials storage building, controlled waste handling facility, and sidewalks. Extension of gas, electric, sewer, water and communication utilities to the building site will be necessary. Physical security measures were integrated into design including maximum feasible standoff distance from roads, parking areas, and vehicle unloading areas, landscaping, and bollards to prevent access when standoff distance cannot be maintained. Cost effective energy conserving features were incorporated into design and standard HVAC/MEP systems commissioning were included.

“Project was recognized as an Excellence Award Winner (Pre-Engineered Building category) at the 2008 Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) Excellence in Construction banquet.”
