Architecture firm HKS<\/a> and Clark Construction Group<\/a> has broken ground on the FBI Innovation Center in Huntsville, Alabama.<\/p>\n

The Innovation Center is located at Redstone Arsenal where the FBI is building a 98-ha (243-acre) campus to realign the bureau, build its capabilities, enhance training programs, and tap into talent in the region, HKS said in a press release.<\/p>\n

As the flagship building of FBI\u2019s new Science and Technology District at Redstone Arsenal, the 23,226-m2<\/sup> (250,000-sf) Innovation Center will be a first-of-its-kind facility dedicated to cyber threat intelligence, data analytics, and training to combat emerging threats.<\/p>\n

The three-story building will include collaborative office space, formal and informal auditoriums, \u2018collision spaces\u2019 for impromptu learning encounters, and specialized training spaces including a kinetic cyber range and a virtual reality (VR) classroom for agents to test and apply their skills and tools in real-world settings.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust eight months after commencing design, we are excited to see this project break ground,\u201d said Jim Whitaker, principal-in-charge leading the design team. \u201cI am proud of the immense collaboration of Clark, the FBI, and our design team to quickly and safely advance the design of this state-of-the-art facility in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.\u201d<\/p>\n

The HKS-Clark team\u2019s scope of work also includes a central utility plant, dining facilities, and an outdoor quad on the new Science and Technology District.<\/p>\n

The project is slated for completion in 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
