May 03 2021 - 8:30AM
Hill International (NYSE:HIL), the global leader in managing
construction risk, announced today it was awarded three contracts
by the General Services Administration (GSA) to manage the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court (USBC) consolidation into the John W. Bricker
Building in Columbus, OH; Phase 2 of Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMS) Headquarters Consolidation in Woodlawn, MD;
and the renovation and repair of the roof and façade system for the
Bean Federal Center in Indianapolis, IN.
The USBC project will allow the Court to leave its current
51,000 SF leased space in Columbus, OH, for 26,000 SF of newly
renovated and modernized offices in the John W. Bricker Federal
Building, located directly across the street from the USBC’s
current space. Work will involve the construction of new
courtrooms, a new security office, three chambers, clerk space, and
related support spaces. Hill will provide construction management,
building assessment, estimating, and scheduling support for the
project.
The CMS Headquarters consolidation program is being delivered in
multiple project phases. Phase 1, where Hill is currently assisting
GSA and CMS, began construction in February 2021. Phase 2 is now
ready to commence design and will start construction in 2022. The
57.4-acre CMS campus comprises four primary buildings totaling
nearly 1 million SF, parking for almost 3,000 cars, and various
related infrastructure components. This program will allow CMS to
consolidate staff on this federally owned and operated property.
Hill will continue to provide construction management support for
the consolidation.
The Major General Emmet J. Bean Federal Center renovation and
repair will upgrade two thirds of the 1.8 million SF facility’s
roof system, as well as address façade system issues. Details of
the work include replacing rooftop cooling towers, installation of
new, breathable elastomeric surface coating for the facade, and new
window sealants. Hill will provide construction management and
commissioning services for the project.
“Hill’s history with GSA goes back decades,” says Hill
International Senior Vice President and Regional Manager Vic
Spinabelli, PE, LEED AP. “We look forward to continuing this
relationship on these latest projects.”
Hill International Chief Executive Officer Raouf Ghali said of
the three awards, “Even before the pandemic, GSA recognized the
need for more efficient and more cost-effective facilities for its
facility end-users. Modernized, consolidated spaces increase staff
retention, reduce overhead, and improve sustainability.”
