Posted: April 3, 2009

 

Hawaii Army National Guard (HIARNG)
3949 Diamond Head Road, Honolulu, HI
Readiness Center (Joint Forces Headquarters - Hawaii Army National Guard); $6,600,000.
  This project includes design funds of $6.6M so that the HIARNG can accelerate the construction of their Joint Forces Headquarters to 2011 or 2012. The JFHQ-HIARNG organization currently has split operations between two locations. Portions of the staff operates out of Fort Ruger at the Adjutant General's headquarters, and part operate out of Kalaeloa in temporary facilities. The Fort Ruger staff elements are currently located 26.5 miles from the Kalaeloa staff elements and the largest density of HIARNG units on Oahu.


PACAF - Hickam AFB
Pacific Air Forces, Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii
Construct Ground Control Tower; $3,900,000.
A properly designed, configured and sited ground control tower is required for ground control tower personnel to direct aircraft and flight line vehicle traffic at Hickam AFB . The existing tower does not provide a clear line-of-sight for all aircraft movements. The new tower location will provide controllers increased aircraft and flight line vehicle movement observation capabilities.


Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard
Naval Station Pearl Harbor, Pearl Harbor, HI
Drydock 2 Starboard Waterfront Facility; $13,550,000.
This project is required to support critical drydocking work vital to the maintenance of surface ships and submarines homeported at Pearl Harbor. NAVSEA has required all Naval Shipyards to provide adequate on-site facilities for Project Management Teams. Critical to the success of any project team is housing its members in functional, adequately-sized, and professionally-equipped contiguous work spaces in very close proximity to its ships/submarines. Collocation of the project team is crucial to maintaining team integrity, momentum, and commitment to each other and their common goal: to successfully execute their project on time, at budget, with the requisite quality. Success will directly affect and improve the Pacific Fleet's maintenance schedules and costs.}
