PA Army National Guard / PA Department of General Services / Department of Military and Veterans Affairs
This project included the construction of new Readiness Center/Armory on 20 acres of Department of Military and Veteran’s Affairs (DMVA) land.
The design contract had two phases. Phase 1 included a schematic design/engineering. Phase 2 – site design and construction documents – was awarded to Keller Engineers as part of a Design-Build Contract. The project included numerous design details for security and Anti-Terrorist/Force Protection measures. The project design evolved as construction documents were being finished through negotiations with the DMVA.
Project Uniqueness/Challenges: Rigorous Department of General Services procedures and review processes were required. The redesign of a major storm water conveyance swale was required due to the detection of an unmarked gas main.
Keller Engineers is the easiest engineer that our Township has worked with. All their engineers and employees are really friendly and helpful. Karen Cregger, Secretary/Treasurer Southampton Township, Bedford County
