What owners and contractors should watch
Air base projects mix secure, operational and airside work.
Expect facility security clearance requirements for bidders and their workers, airside access rules that slow deliveries and inspections, and long-lead items such as hangar doors, fuel systems and aircraft support equipment.
Build security screening time and airside phasing into the schedule from day one, and treat long-lead procurement as its own critical path.
