Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Southeast awarded a $16.8 million firm-fixed-price construction contract on Sept. 16 to CCI Prime Contractors of Niceville, Florida, for the replacement of the roof on an aircraft maintenance hangar at Naval Air Station (NAS) Meridian, Mississippi.
The project provides for the complete re-roofing of the aircraft maintenance hangar, the full reinstallation of the lightning protection system, and the cleaning, preparation, and painting of the steel roof superstructure. These upgrades will ensure the hangar remains a safe and functional facility for aircraft maintenance operations well into the future.
“Maintaining and modernizing our hangars is essential to increasing the Navy’s lethality,” said NAVFAC Southeast Commanding Officer Capt. Matthew Williams. “By investing in infrastructure improvements at NAS Meridian, we are directly contributing to the Navy’s ability to fight and win by keeping aircraft mission-ready and training aviators who are ready for combat.”
NAS Meridian leadership echoed the importance of the project for daily operations. “This hangar plays a vital role in supporting the training and readiness of our aviators,” said Capt. Luke Davis, commanding officer of NAS Meridian. “The improvements will give our maintainers the reliable facilities they need to keep aircraft safe, effective, and available to meet mission demands.”
Work will be performed in Meridian, Mississippi, and is expected to be completed by June 2027.
