97th Intelligence Squadron - Offutt AFB
Completed: T.B.D.
Construction cost: $11,400,000
This
project includes the renovation of, and a very large addition to, a
large secure existing intelligence operations and maintenance facility.
The overall size of the facility doubled upon completion. The squadron
is heavily equipped with computer network systems throughout the
building. The entire building is a Sensitive Compartmented Information
Facility (SCIF). Due to mission evolution and a rapidly-increasing
population, before completion, staff were decentralized, housed
partially in other buildings, and were extremely over-crowded. The
project required carefully phased construction in order to maintain
secure operations and keep staff on duty in the building throughout the
construction period. The facility houses 4 distinct user groups, each
with over-lapping facility needs and adjacency requirements. Common
facilities are shared by all groups.
