ABOUT THIS PROJECT
We prepared the design as a task order under an IDIQ A/E design contract for the 88ABW, Civil Engineering Group at Wright-Patterson AFB. Luckett & Farley was tasked with updating the Human Effectiveness (Human Performance Wing, “HPW”) Master Plan to replace a 2006 pre-BRAC master plan. Updating the plan included documenting space, infrastructure and adjacency requirements of the HPW, and providing concepts for the consolidation of administrative, laboratory, and support functions. HPW functions are currently dispersed in facilities throughout Area B at Wright-Patterson AFB. The facilities vary in degree of physical condition and adequacy to serve the HPW needs. The current conditions create inefficiencies and limit collaboration. Consolidation will facilitate “net-centric” research, improve delivery time, lower costs in developing products, and speed up integration and delivery of training programs.
