New Facilities<br />

Completed<br />

New <strong>US</strong>AID Annex January 4, 2008<br />

Bamako, Mali<br />

The $14 million design-build<br />

contract was awarded<br />

to FEM-JV, a joint venture<br />

<strong>of</strong> Framaco and Metis-Epik.<br />

FEM-JV subcontracted the design<br />

to the A/E firm Karn Charuhas<br />

Chapman & Twohey (KCCT). The<br />

project consists <strong>of</strong> a two-story<br />

building with a third floor<br />

mechanical space, associated<br />

sitework, landscaping adjacent<br />

to the building, and additional<br />

staff parking. The building has<br />

approximately 2,950 square<br />

meters <strong>of</strong> interior space and a<br />

second floor landscaped terrace.<br />

It was occupied on January 4,<br />

2008, and is home to 65 <strong>US</strong>AID<br />

and Millennium Challenge<br />

Corporation (MCC) employees.<br />

The HVAC system features a dust<br />

collection system to filter the dust<br />

and dirt from the air during the<br />

Harmattan season. The <strong>OBO</strong><br />

Project Executive was Jim Duffy<br />

and the Project Director was Sid<br />

Maddox.
