The ground-up rethinking of aircraft maintenance has been integrated into a facility to maintain and repair aircraft in half the time of existing facilities. The construction cost of the project is one billion dollars and the project was bid in seven hundred separate bid packages. Jacob Braun was in charge of site coordination and quality assurance of several landscape architecture firms, three civil engineering firms, a security firm, a site graphics firm, an irrigation firm, and electrical, mechanical and structural engineering firms totaling 57 million dollars of site work on the project. A separate plant materials bid assured the owner that the plant materials would be available in quantities mandated by the large over-all project. Most irrigation utilized lake water, and a pond emphasized the central focus of the development. The facility operates 24-hour a day with in-place shift changes which mandated initially accommodating parking for 2500 cars with expansion capability. Features on the reforested site included an employee fitness trail and a landscaped pedestrian area with a bridge. Replication of some wildlife areas was necessary to accommodate the large project without disrupting the regional ecosystem. The architect on the project was Frankfurt Short Bruza PC.
