    Employees with contractor Relyant Global, which is headquartered in Maryville, Tenn., continued work on constructing new buildings for the installation's Child and Youth Services administration and storage Dec. 28 at Fort McCoy, Wis.

    A contract of $1,871,209 was awarded in June to contractor Relyant Global, said Construction Inspector Mark Nelson with the Directorate of Public Works.

    “The project is located on West F Street and is now about 20 percent complete,” Nelson said. “It’s scheduled for completion in July 2018.”

    There are two new buildings being constructed. One will house administrative personnel for Fort McCoy’s CYS programs and another will provide additional storage space.

    “These facilities will consolidate storage by replacing three older facilities,” Nelson said.

    The new facility will be a brick-faced structure and built with the latest and best materials available, Nelson said.

    The new construction also aligns with Fort McCoy’s strategic objectives in the installation’s five-year Strategic Business Plan, including to “sustain and modernize Fort McCoy’s cantonment, range complex, strategic mobility, physical security, quality of life and information technology infrastructure.”

    Fort McCoy has supported America’s armed forces since 1909. The installation’s motto is to be the “Total Force Training Center.” The post’s varied terrain, state-of-the-art ranges, new as well as renovated facilities, and extensive support infrastructure combine to provide military personnel with an environment in which to develop and sustain the skills necessary for mission success.
