Faithful+Gould, a member of the SNC-Lavalin Group, was awarded a $62-million contract by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to provide initial outfitting and transition services for the replacement of the General Leonard Wood Army Community Hospital in Missouri.
The company will provide full services to transition approximately 1,156 staff located in the legacy facility and outlying medical spaces into the newly constructed GLWCH facility.

The project replaces a 40-year-old facility with a new modern medical campus programmed to support 5,700 active-duty military personnel, 20,400 trainees and their families.
The $302-million facility will include a 235,400-square-foot hospital, a 193,300-square-foot clinic, central utility plant, emergency back-up generators, five-bay ambulance garage, helipad and support facilities.
Additional project team members include JE Dunn Construction, RLF, Olsson Engineering, Land3 Studio, MMC Contractors, Guarantee Electrical and Bloomsdale Excavating, as well as 20 other subconsultants and trade partners.
