Simmons previously served the Navy in uniform as a Seabee for 10 years. Management for NAVFAC Washington is currently led on site by Robert Simmons, a civilian construction manager. The total current contract value for the entire construction project is $79 million.
The ADN facility is a precast concrete structure with auger cast pile foundation. The parking facility will be a multi-story, pre-cast concrete structure with auger cast pile foundations. The facility will include an auditorium, gaming classrooms, game cells, breakout rooms and conference rooms. The Wargaming Center is designed as a low-rise, Georgian-style facility with exterior features that include cast stone, brick veneer and asphalt shingle roofs. To meet Marine Corps wargaming mission at MCB Quantico, the military construction project consists of three primary structures - the 100,000 square-foot Wargaming and Analysis Center, an adjacent parking facility spanning over 130,000 square feet, and the Area Distribution Node (ADN), a separate structure that will support communication services to the facility. This facility represents a game changer for the way we can approach future warfighting capabilities.” “Every day the threat environment posed by our near-peer competitors changes, and this project is on a fast-track to provide the facilities that will enhance Marine Corps warfighters’ ability to outpace those threats. Benjamin Leppard, NAVFAC Washington Operations Officer.
“The Wargaming and Analysis Center will provide a critical capability to the Marine Corps,” said Capt. The Center will bring together the staff and visiting leaders in one location and double the number of war games the force can conduct annually. The Wargaming and Analysis Center will provide next-generation technologies to help Marines better visualize the threat environment and gain competitive advantages over adversaries. As NAVFAC Washington and construction contractor Clark Construction Group, LLC, reach the 50% work in place milestone, it is time to take a peek at the new center of wargaming for the Marine Corps. It has been over a year since Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Washington broke ground on the new Marine Corps Wargaming and Analysis Center at Marine Corps Base (MCB) Quantico and the project is taking shape.
