Axias has been awarded the first phase of a five-year contract from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Huntsville Engineering Support Center to perform area cost factor (ACF) surveys at more than 400 locations around the world. The ACFs are used by the Department of Defense for program budgeting.

The scope of work at each installation requires market research into construction trends; collection of labor rates for eight different crafts; determination of labor availability; costs for 18 commonly used construction materials; hourly rates for construction equipment; typical labor productivity on projects; and currency exchange rates.

Led by Scott Cullen, who is managing a team of seven cost management professionals, the project kicked off in October 2020 and final Phase 1 deliverables are due in September 2021.
