Description

The Alaska Aerospace Corporation is expanding and developing a launch pad at the Pacific Spaceport Complex - Alaska (PSCA). This project requires the installation of a Vehicle Integration Building for the new launch pad, with a near-identical building needed for an upcoming expansion. The procurement involves the design, development, transportation, and installation of two pre-engineered metal buildings at PSCA on Kodiak Island, Alaska. The buildings must meet stringent environmental design criteria due to severe weather and seismic conditions. Coordination with on-site personnel and adherence to a schedule aligned with civil work completion are required.
