by Brianna Crandall — January 22, 2016—Global professional services firm JLL (Jones Lang LaSalle) announced earlier this month that it has been selected to join the U.S. Army’s Operations, Maintenance and Minor Construction Program.
As a partner in this U.S. Army Medical Command (MEDCOM) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers initiative, JLL received a multiple-award contract offering the ability to provide facilities management (FM) and healthcare advisory services to hospitals, clinics and research facilities throughout the United States and Caribbean.
“JLL’s unique combination of healthcare experience and military expertise makes us a perfect fit for this program,” said Barry Scribner, co-president of JLL’s Public Institutions group. “Tapping more into JLL’s broad range of integrated services is a natural expansion of our long-standing relationship with Army.”
JLL has already started providing operations, preventive maintenance, repairs and minor construction services at the Lyster Army Health Clinic (LAHC), a 200,000-square-foot patient-centered medical facility located at Fort Rucker, Alabama.
JLL’s Healthcare Solutions team is also providing assistance and subject-matter expertise to LAHC as it considers updating regulatory compliance and maintenance engineering programs.
In addition, the team is providing FM support for Ft. Rucker’s 10,000-sqaure-foot dental facility and 5,000-square-foot veterinary facility.
JLL says its commercial real estate and public institution experts have been advising federal, state and local governments on real estate solutions for decades. For more information on how JLL supports government goals, visit the firm’s Government Agencies page online.
