EMCOR Group, Inc.'s Government Services subsidiary has received a contract from the United States General Services Administration's (GSA) Public Buildings Service at the John W. McCormack Federal Building. This facility will serve as the new home for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) New England, the largest tenant in the building. EMCOR Government Services (EGS) will be responsible for the total operation and maintenance of the John W. McCormack Federal Building. Scope of work for EGS includes operation and maintenance of the following equipment and systems: mechanical, plumbing, heating, HVAC systems; fire protection systems; control systems; architectural and structural systems; locks and keycard systems; and management of the building service calls. The McCormack Building has been undergoing a significant renovation that, once completed, is anticipated will enable the facility to attain a Silver LEED rating by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). The award to EGS of this assignment was based, in part, on its expertise in servicing and operating LEED facilities and green environments. "It's an honor to be contributing to the well being of such a dynamic and important facility for the GSA," said Michael Shelton, president of EMCOR Government Services. "EGS brings to the John W. McCormack Federal Building commercial best practices and extensive facilities knowledge which we believe will help provide high-performance facility and long-term value, while meeting the highest standards for green facilities."
