Ground has been broken for the FBI Innovation Center in Huntsville, Alabama. The Design-Build project team includes Clark Construction Group and HKS.
The Innovation Center is located at Redstone Arsenal where the FBI is building a 243-acre campus to strategically realign the Bureau, build its capabilities, enhance its training programs and tap into top talent in the region.
As the flagship building of the FBI’s new Science and Technology District, the 250,000-square-foot Innovation Center will be a first-of-its-kind facility dedicated to cyber threat intelligence, data analytics and training to combat emerging threats.
The three-story building will include collaborative office space, both formal and informal auditoriums, “collision spaces” for impromptu learning encounters and specialized training spaces including a kinetic cyber range and a virtual reality classroom for agents to test and apply their skills and tools in real-world settings.
The Design-Build team’s scope of work also includes a central utility plant, dining facilities and an outdoor quad on the new Science and Technology District.
The completion of the project is slated for 2023.
