Clement Group in Montgomery, AL received a $15.7 million firm-fixed-price task order for the design and construction of 3 battalion headquarters buildings for Battalion Combat Teams Complexes at Fort Lewis, WA.
Clement received the task order under a US Army multiple award task order contract (MATOC) the contractor won in June 2008. The MATOC, which covers construction of battalion and brigade headquarters in the US Northwest Region, has a potential value of $150 million.
Located in Pierce and Thurston Counties in Washington, Fort Lewis is one of the largest military reservations in the United States…
Fort Lewis is home to I Corps, Madigan Army Medical Center, 3 Stryker Brigades – 3rd Brigade, 4th Brigade and the 5th Brigade – of the 2nd Infantry Division. Other Army units at the fort include the 4th Cavalry, 6th Squadron, 42nd Military Police Brigade, 201st Military Intelligence Brigade, 6th Military Police Group (CID), 555th Combat Support Brigade (Maneuver Enhancement), 62nd Medical Brigade, 142nd Signal Brigade, and 593rd Corps Support Group.
The US Army is planning to spend $589 million on new construction to accommodate the conversion of existing brigade combat teams (BCTs) to modern BCTs at Forts Lewis, Wainwright, Carson, and Bragg. “US Army Moves Ahead with BCT Facilities Construction in CONUS” has more on the Army’s plans.
Clement expects to complete construction by April 30/11. For the contract, 4 bids were solicited with 2 bids received by the US Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District in Washington (W912HN-08-D-0029).
