Construction Manager - Architect/Engineer

GCC & Associates LLC is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) based in Irvine, California that specializes in delivering projects for the built environment. The firm provides program, project and construction management, project controls, executive alignment, and partnering and facilitation services certified by the International Partnering Institute. GCC serves federal clients including the Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, GSA, Department of State, Department of Justice and U.S. Air Force, as well as state and local governments and private developers. Its experience covers healthcare, education, ports, airports, transit and international work, with projects such as VA medical centers, U.S. embassies, the LAX expansion program and the Giant Magellan Telescope in Chile. GCC's stated mission is the "safe, sustainable, and successful delivery of projects and programs that enhance communities worldwide."

GCC provides construction management, project management and commissioning support for a portfolio of Non-Recurring Maintenance (NRM) projects at the Central Alabama Veterans Health Care System (CAVHCS), covering its VA Medical Center campuses in Montgomery and Tuskegee, Alabama. The work includes replacing the aging central boiler plant with a new boiler system and its supporting infrastructure, along with a building renovation and the renovation of pathology space. Other projects replace fire alarm systems in several buildings, correct failing plumbing conditions, and mitigate critical electrical hazards through site lighting improvements, which together address deficiencies found in facility condition assessments. On-site mechanical engineers, electrical engineers and staff architects are each assigned to a specific project, providing project management, scheduling, cost and change order control, and review of submittals and requests for information. The team also runs quality assurance inspections, constructability and phasing reviews, and safety and code compliance monitoring. It coordinates closely with facility staff so construction doesn't disrupt ongoing hospital operations, utilities or patient access. The team oversees commissioning and startup of new systems, so each project is fully tested, documented and ready for turnover to the VA over the next five years.
