BOEING HELICOPTER PLANT

A Chanen joint venture designed and built this $107 million facility with fast-track construction, permitting completion and move-in within 19 months and saving $10 million. The design-build, 1.3 million sq.-ft. expansion project consisted of office, laboratory and assembly facilities. Included were an assembly building, central plant, flight test facility, warehouse and a paint hangar.

The two-story, 340,000 sq.-ft. Advanced Development Center was built to serve as a giant laboratory for development of new rotocraft programs and advanced versions of the Apache AH-64 and Model 500 Series helicopters. The facility includes a 225,000 sq.-ft. engineering center, a three-story, 270,000 sq.-ft. corporate headquarters, a 17,000 sq.-ft. computer room, a 200-seat auditorium and a cafeteria. A 250,000 sq-ft. material center contains a quality-assurance laboratory and warehouse.

This plant makes the AH-64 helicopters that were used in the Gulf War and Desert Storm.
