Representative Engineering Projects
Colorado Springs Ground-based Midcourse
Defense Brigade/ARSTRAT Real Property Master Planning—Colorado Springs, CO
Planning was needed to ensure adequate facilities for units in Colorado Springs,
CO. We implemented a Master Plan Study to develop a vision for accommodating out-year
SMDC growth in Colorado Springs. Army Tables of Distribution and Allowances and
draft Tables of Organization and Equipment were used to determine current and out-year
facility requirements for Colorado Springs SMDC assets. We then developed and applied
exclusionary and evaluative criteria to identify the optimal sites for expansion.
A decision brief was prepared on construction options to satisfy requirements at
Peterson AFB and Fort Carson.
Von Braun Complex, Phase I & II—Redstone
Arsenal, AL
KAYA provided facilities management and design services for 452,820 square feet
of buildings for Phase I and II of the Von Braun Complex at Redstone Arsenal, AL.
Services included programming, schematic design, design development, construction
documentation, building construction, post construction, and building warranty.
As part of the support provided to SMDC, KAYA personnel were on-site during construction
to answer requirement related questions, manage joint occupancy, and verify and
document construction methods for Security related certifications. Phase II design
included antiterrorism measures, a five-story administrative building, and integration
with Phase I buildings.
Fort Greely Garrison Security Services—Fort
Greely, AK
Due to a limited labor pool of trained personnel with security clearance in Alaska,
KAYA developed clearance criteria and a pre-screening method to streamline the process
of locating qualified security personnel. The rigorous pre-screening process eliminated
candidates with no chance of obtaining clearance, allowing only high-probability
candidates to be submitted for clearance, resulting in a 30% reduction of costs
over government estimates.
Facility Planning
KAYA views the facility planning process as a tool to enable our customers to develop
both an integrated vision and future direction to efficiently manage the facilities
they currently have. We also help our customers develop an overall master plan that
allows them to acquire or reduce real estate assets in order to support the strategic
direction of their organization. Using the summary development plan as a part of
the overall facilities planning process, we assist the customer in developing a
short range vision for the organization and specific tasks to be accomplished in
order to realize that vision. KAYA integrates the facility planning process with
a web based information system that allows all members involved in the planning
process to share updated task status and serves as an archival tool to document
progress. Members are able to access status anywhere at any time through any computer
that has internet access.
Engineering
KAYA has experience in every phase of the project delivery process. From enabling
the customer to visualize and quantify the end result to developing and executing
a move in plan, KAYA is able to augment or serve as the owner’s engineer to assist
at any phase of the process.
Our Engineers and Project Managers treat the planning, design, and construction
phases as integrated tasks to deliver quality projects on time and within budget.
Serving as the owner’s representative, they are able to quickly adapt to the owner’s
organizational process and requirements while integrating state of the art industry
project delivery practices.
Regardless of the method of project delivery the customer chooses, KAYA can assist
in a full range of services. Should the customer choose design-build, design-bid-build,
or construction management, KAYA can select and manage the team best suited to meet
the customer’s needs and provide expertise in a full range of engineering services
related to each phase of project delivery.
Facility Management
Facilities Management is the synchronization of the workplace, infrastructure, and
building engineering and maintenance. A quality workplace is crucial to organizational
productivity and mission accomplishment. KAYA provides a full range of facilities
management support from facility condition assessments to retro-commissioning. This
support may include programming, space planning, facilities design services, design
reviews, and construction oversight. We perform studies, conduct investigations,
and develop documentation in the areas of real property master planning, facility
and space utilization, cost estimating, and design criteria development. We provide
designs and criteria, including quality assurance during the construction phase,
for the renovation of facilities construction projects.
Many of our customers have contracted out various aspects of their facilities management
operations to KAYA Associates. Currently, KAYA has a full range of administrative,
technical and professional level employees that are engaged in this level of direct
support. KAYA provides a variety of facilities services to support our client’s
needs and mission requirements.
