This new $12 million 25,000 SF building facility includes 30 exam spaces, procedure room, telehealth, and behavioral health areas. The design is based on the VA’s Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) principles – Patient- Centered Care, Coordination of Care and Access to Care. The design provides a modern, high-performance, cost-effective building that integrates and optimizes energy efficiency, durability, life-cycle performance, and enhances the ability of the VA staff to work productively, while providing a welcoming environment for Veterans.

SES provided Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Protection and Communications Engineering design. We coordinated with various VA departments to create an efficient layout of offices, exam rooms, surgical space, circulation space, data centers, communication/IT rooms and other spaces.

Our design includes provisions for adaptability and flexibility to meet future VA needs. The roof deck heights are sufficient to allow reconfiguration of mechanical, fire protection, and electrical systems in the space above ceilings if necessary. Primary mechanical and electrical systems, and electrical switchgear, have expansion capacity to add mechanical air distribution boxes, electrical outlets, or lights without upgrading the central plant.
The building is designed to achieve two Green Globe ratings for New Construction.
