MJW Upgrades Fire Protection Systems at NAS Corpus Christi

MJW is in the final stages of completing a successful fire protection upgrade project for the Navy at the NAS Corpus Christi. Awarded under MJW’s MACC contract with NAVFAC SE, this design-build project is dedicated to enhancing fire safety infrastructure for Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Distribution facilities on the base, which serves as the primary wholesale distribution point for major components to support helicopter repair missions for Department of Defense and Foreign military Sales customers worldwide. The project includes the installation of new fire sprinkler, fire alarm and mass notification systems, as well as improvements to mechanical and electrical systems across five separate operating buildings.

In close collaboration with the local Public Works Department and DLA personnel, MJW prioritized minimizing disruptions to ongoing operations within the buildings. The project’s success can be attributed to MJW’s extensive experience, diverse services, proficient site management, high-quality craft and subcontractors, and a collaborative approach with Navy personnel. As a result, the project is poised to finish under budget and approximately four months ahead of schedule.
