Elevator Modernization Projects at Midcon Builds

This was a Won and Run project under the NAVFAC Southeast Gulf Coast Area of Responsibility Design-Build / Design-Bid-Build Multiple Award Construction Contract (N6945024D0020). Midcon Builds supported the original MATOC proposal and then stepped into critical leadership roles for the Prime Contractor (NNAC), including Project Manager, Safety Coordinator, Quality Control Manager, Environmental Manager, Scheduler, and Specifier.

The task order covered the complete modernization of the existing elevator systems in Buildings 456 and 791 at Naval Support Activity Mid-South, Millington, Tennessee. Work was performed in a fully active installation environment, requiring careful coordination to maintain safe access and operational continuity for building occupants throughout construction.

All phases of the project, from planning and submittals through installation, testing, and closeout, were managed under strict NAVFAC quality, safety, and schedule requirements. The project was completed successfully, on schedule, and within budget.
