$12M for U.S. NCO Academy

“Build it right, maggots!”

Non-commissioned officers are arguably the most important group of people in any Army – a quality NCO Corps makes the difference between an army that performs well in combat and one that can’t. So it’s nice to see TCI Architects/Engineers/Contractors Inc. in La Crosse, WI receiving an $12 million firm-fixed-price contract for construction of a non-commissioned officer’s academy at Fort McCoy, WI.

Work and is expected to be complete by Sept. 20, 2007. There were an unknown number of bids solicited via the World Wide Web on Feb. 6, 2006, and three bids were received. The Army Corps of Engineers in Louisville, KY issued the contract (W912QR-06-C-0021).
