Contract Awarded to Construct $279-M Advanced Semiconductor Facility at Hanscom Air Force Base

Gilbane, in a joint venture partnership with cleanroom constructor Exyte, has been awarded the firm fixed price construction of a new a $279-million Advanced Compound Semiconductor Laboratory/Microsystem Integration Facility for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lincoln Laboratory located at Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts.

MIT LL is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center chartered to apply advanced technology to problems of national security. The Advanced CSL-MIF consists of approximately 162,000 gross square feet of new laboratory and office space, including a cleanroom complex for use by the Advanced Technologies Division of MIT LL. The new CSL will consolidate MIT LL’s existing compound semiconductor materials growth, fabrication and characterization facilities.

The new MIF will consolidate and enhance MIT LL’s facilities for the fabrication and packaging of specialized advanced electronic prototypes. These changes are necessary to effectively and efficiently ensure that MIT LL can continue to apply advanced technology to the realm of national security throughout the 21st century.

Construction is slated for completion in 2025.
