Project Details

MFS Construction, LLC (MFS) was under contract by Conti Federal Services for general construction services in various properties of the US Virgin Islands National Guard (USVING) in Saint Croix, USVI. The award to MFS consists of demolition, new construction, repairs and rehabilitation for military buildings that include a compound, an operations facility, guard booths, warehouse, armory and a hangar. MFS is responsible for providing all field labor, material and equipment for this project.

On the initial phase, MFS was tasked with constructing HVAC infrastructure that required new concrete slabs, excavate trenches for the underground electrical conduits, and furnish and install protective fencing and bollards of the perimeters.

The scheduled second and third phases require repairs on 7 buildings and construction of smaller infrastructure, such as guard booths and entrances, throughout various USVING installations in the island of St. Croix. Tasks include interior and exterior works, electrical and mechanical works, HVAC, fire safety, demolition of ceilings to install new reflected ceilings, gypsum board work, installation of new floorings, installation of various types of doors – including secure and ballistic doors – , new windows and curtains, lighting fixtures, hangar repairs and installation of rolling doors, new fiber glass walls, among others.

The final and fourth phase required roof repairs and remediation for the aforementioned buildings. Throughout the entirety of the project, MFS must comply with USACE standards of Health, Safety and Security for their personnel on site, abide by U.S. regulations on materials and equipment, and submitting Daily Work Reports of all activities incurred in the project sites.

For this particular project, MFS had to mobilize personnel, vehicles, equipment and materials for a long-term operation in the island of St. Croix, as final delivery is expected to be in October 2020.
