by Shane Henson — May 27, 2013—URS Corporation, an engineering, construction and technical services organization operating worldwide, announced that it was recently awarded an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity, multiple award contract from the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center in Huntsville, Alabama, to provide design-build services for the Medical Repair and Renewal Program in the continental United States and at overseas locations.
Under the terms of the contract, URS can compete for or be awarded task orders to design and build U.S. Army medical facilities. This work can include repairs, renovations, and procurement, as well as the installation and maintenance of required equipment and systems, says URS. The company has already proven itself through past projects with the U.S. Army, and is eager to further showcase its staff’s abilities.
“This contract expands upon the relationship that URS has established with the military in performing medical facilities design and build, starting with the renovation of the Keesler Air Force Base Medical Center following Hurricane Katrina, and recently, the design-build of a new Medical Education Training Complex at Fort Sam Houston in Texas,” says Gary V. Jandegian, president of infrastructure and environment for URS. “The selection of URS for the contract demonstrates the Army’s confidence in URS to deliver high-level expertise in the design and construction of healthcare facilities.”
