This project was executed under Midcon Builds’ Won and Run model for the United States Air Force. Midcon Builds identified the opportunity, developed the winning proposal, supported project estimating, and took on essential project leadership roles including Project Manager, Design Project Manager, Environmental Manager, Quality Control Manager, Safety Coordinator, and Specifier for the Prime Contractor.
The objective of Project XLWU 21-8107 was to relocate an existing emergency generator at Tyndall Air Force Base to meet future mission needs. This Design-Build project included design and construction of a new 192-square-foot pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) to house the relocated generator, along with all required mechanical, electrical, architectural, and site improvements to deliver a complete and operational facility.
The work complied with Department of Defense building standards and the Florida Building Code, including High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements. Additional scope included approximately 2,500 linear feet of horizontal directional boring near the Tyndall AFB runway within the active flight line environment, installation of associated utility infrastructure, and demolition and abandonment of the existing generator facility.
Extensive coordination was required for design development, permitting, horizontal utility construction, runway and flight line access, quality control, safety management, environmental compliance, procurement, construction execution, and project closeout to support Air Force mission requirements.
The project was completed safely, on schedule, and within budget.
