Project Labor Agreement - United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity Headquarters Building

Project Labor Agreement (PLA) for a large scale construction project within the Frederick County, Maryland area: The work includes the new United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity Headquarters Building (USAMRAA-HQ). The facility is planned as a 3-story structure providing a modern, flexible and efficient work environment that will support the administrative requirements associated with the medical research acquisition activities that USAMRAA is responsible for. The program includes 54,730 SF of typical office space as well as a high density storage room, two large conference rooms and miscellaneous support spaces. The program calls for an open office environment with predominantly open work stations. The design has a partial Ground Floor with the main entrance close to the parking, a full First Floor with the ceremonial entrance facing the parade field and a partial Second Floor with access to a roof terrace. The ceremonial entrance, on the parade field side, enters the building on the First Floor while the main entrance from the parking enters the building on the Ground Floor. An entry court and potential exterior gathering space, formed by a retaining wall perpendicular to Doughten Drive, lead to a main entry point from the parking. The approach to the ceremonial entrance, from the parade field, is gently graded up to the First Floor entry point to improve the prominence of the building. A loading area is provided at the northwest corner of the site, off of Building 810 parking access road.
