The Tactical, Operational, and Strategic Setting

“We will be a collaborative team, with better, faster, cheaper, greener and safer solutions that

will delight those we serve.”Vision Statement by LTG Strock, former Chief of Engineers

What is PACS®

Modular Approach Whose Focus is on Durability

Understanding the Options Understanding the Realities

Buildings are Durable (50-Year+ is easily achieved)Manufactured Construction Meets Quality StandardsBuildings have met:

All Building CodesLEED®

AT/FPFE/BRSeismic RequirementsProgressive Collapse RequirementsHurricane/Typhoon Wind Load RequirementsSCIF Requirements

Reduces Access and On-Site Construction IssuesPositive Incidentals

Tighter QA/QCAll Construction Phases at OnceGood for the Client and the Construction WorkerMore Project for the Money

Case Study: Yale University

Factory-built modulesThree-story residence unit

Custom brickworkWindows with concrete lintelsHardwood floors

Schedule: 8 MonthsSet in 4 days over spring break7,800 Square Feet

Cost: $3.0 Million

Case Study: Army Materiel Command

Factory-built modules80% of work done in controlled production environment

In-house construction workforceMitigated weather exposures

Schedule: 9 monthsEstimated time savings: 27 mo.

Cost: $28.3 Million Estimated cost savings: $31.7M

Built in ’03 for an exigent requirement; purchased Oct ’07 with BRAC MILCON

Case Study: Army Materiel Command

“This is a world-class facility. It’s amazing to see this kind of quality and value delivered with unmatched speed!”

Colonel Tom Williams, Garrison Commander, Ft. Belvoir, VA

Case Study: Air National Guard Alert Hangars in Response to 9-11

Thirty Hangers in 30 DaysOne Design for all Locations

Allowed last minute changes by ANGSavings on engineering costs more than offset the extra material costs

Schedule: 30-60 Days Depending on Location

Estimated time savings: 9-12 mo.Cost: $27 Million

Estimated cost savings: $4.0M

Case Study: Air National Guard Alert Hangars in Response to 9-11

“It is the quickest I’ve ever seen a project go from project concept to construction. We heard one week, and the contractors were on the site the next!”

Major Stephen P. Demianczyk, Base Civil Engineer, Otis AFB

Changing Roles

Adjusting Typical RolesAdjusting Typical RolesTraditional Solutions Accelerated Solutions

Owner / Developer / Agency

Prescribe the Solution; Approve the Design

Performance Specs; Speed of Occupancy; Flexibility

Architect / Engineer Deliberate Design Adaptive Design, Focused Services as Needed

QA/QC Design and Construction Design, Manufacture, and Construction

Builder / CM Mobilize and Build on Site; GCs are Significant

Split Effort – Plant and Site Moves Activities Earlier, Reduces On-Site GCs

Tenant Influence in Planning and Design

Abbreviated Opportunity to Influence Up-front

Cradle-to-Cradle Implications

Typical OpportunitiesSpeed of OccupancyDurability can be IncrementalizedLower Weather Exposures

Typical RisksDelayed Decisions – all partiesScope Gaps – prime and subs

Atypical OpportunitiesAdaptive Reuse – Plan for it!
