Hill International Selected by GSA to Manage Renovations at the Social Security Administration Headquarters Complex in Maryla...
March 27 2017 - 8:30AM
Hill International (NYSE:HIL), the global leader in managing
construction risk, announced today that it has received a contract
from Region 3 of the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) to
provide construction management services during modernization of
the Arthur J. Altmeyer Building and renovations to the Robert M.
Ball Building, both located on the headquarters campus of the U.S.
Social Security Administration (SSA) located in Woodlawn,
Maryland. The four-year contract has an estimated value to
Hill of approximately $2.9 million.
The ten-story Altmeyer Building is the main
building on the SSA campus. The building is connected through
a series of links to the Ball Building and the West High Rise
Building. The Altmeyer Building will undergo a complete
modernization, with construction requiring all tenants to fully
vacate the building prior to construction. For the duration
of the project, Altmeyer tenants will be moved into temporary
office “swing space” located in the adjacent Ball Building.
The swing space will be designed and constructed, prior to
the Altmeyer being vacated. Hill’s scope of work includes
managing the design and construction of swing space in the Ball
Building to allow the Altmeyer Building to be vacated, and then
managing the comprehensive renovation of the Altmeyer
building. The two projects have a combined estimated
construction cost of approximately $110 million.
“The Altmeyer Building is the public face of the
SSA campus,” said Edward C. Newman III, P.E., CCM, LEED AP, Hill’s
Senior Vice President and Washington, DC Regional Manager.
“These renovations will deliver much needed upgrades providing
optimal functionality for many years to come,” added Newman.
