Scope Of Work
The $171 million Temporary Unit of Action Facility at Biggs Army Airfield in Fort Bliss, Texas, supported a brigade under the U.S. Army’s Modular Force transformation program. Clark successfully completed the turnover of all three phases of the construction eight months after construction began.
Fort Bliss is the home of the Air Defense Artillery Center of Excellence and is responsible for air defense artillery training of U.S. soldiers and various allied nation soldiers. It is also the home of the Seven Forces Command war-fighting units. The Fort Bliss Temporary Unit of Action Facility included 392 barracks, 13 laundry facilities, 20 storage buildings, 13 dayroom facilities and 65 administration buildings. In addition, Clark erected a 26,000 square-foot dining facility and five 10,000 square-foot tensioned fabric structures, which are used for combat vehicle maintenance.
Clark installed furniture throughout the facility. In the barracks, the dormitory-style bedroom furniture consisted of a bed, desk, night stand, bureau, and mirror. Office furniture included freestanding, movable desks, systems furniture, file cabinets, work benches, chairs, classroom tables, credenzas, and hutches. In addition, the team installed dining room tables and chairs in the dining facility.
