Experience
Marshall Craft understands the nature and intent of a wide range of federal guidance, regulations, standards, and specifications and is successful at navigating projects through funding cycles and phases when necessary. We appreciate the varied and unique design considerations within the federal and state government market, including anti-terrorism/force protection, security, high-hazard research and manufacturing operations, energy reduction mandates, and historic properties. Our team’s leadership, experience, technical capabilities, and thorough approach to project management have led to exceptional performance ratings and our extensive private sector experience enhances our ability to provide thought leadership and innovative approaches to our government clients.
Civilian Federal Agencies
We have provided planning, design, and construction administration services for many civilian federal agencies and organizations, including:
National Institutes of Health (NIH)
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
National Park Service
Smithsonian Institution (an Independent Federal Trust organization)
United States Geological Survey (USGS)
United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
United States Postal Service (USPS)
Department of Defense
Since 1986, we have supported hundreds of projects across the four DoD military branches, as well as multiple DoD Intelligence agencies. We assist these organizations with making informed and fiscally responsible design decisions while recognizing that the military mission and personnel wellbeing come first. We’ve had the opportunity to work on many facility types, including research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) laboratories, historic chapels, explosives assembly facilities, SCIF, BEQs, aircraft hangars, dining halls, and welcome centers. We excel at building consensus among various stakeholders, including senior leadership, planners, engineers, regulatory agencies, community interest groups, and environmental representatives. We are skilled at identifying alternative funding strategies, phased implementation approaches, and innovative facility reuse options, bringing new life and improved efficiencies to historic facilities.
Military Construction
Marshall Craft supports military construction (MILCON) projects from concept through construction. Our planners assist clients with scope development, requirements analysis, site selection, and programming, ultimately resulting in the development of a complete DD Form 1391 package. These efforts include identification of alternatives, consideration of various phasing approaches and acquisition strategies, and preparation of life cycle economic analysis to justify projects based not only on their mission impacts, but also their cost avoidance and savings potential. MCA understands the importance of proper up-front planning and accurate project documentation in order to justify the project to senior leadership and have it rank well among competing priorities for limited funding resources. We consider it an honor to support our military and play a role in shaping its real property assets.
