Mission of the ISO

The Southwestern Division Installation Support mission provides smaller-scaled engineering, construction, environmental and real estate services to our military customers under their facility sustainment, restoration and maintenance program.  The Division’s average SRM reimbursable workload totals about $300-400 million per fiscal year.  In FY-09 and -10, the American Recovery and Restoration Act provided our districts with the unique challenge of an additional 101 projects at a Program Amount of $364 million above their normal SRM workload. 

Through the Division’s three military district offices, Operations & Management technical services are provided to 18 to 22 installation/base facility engineers on a reimbursable basis.  IS services provided may include, but not limited to, construction, alteration, operation, maintenance, and repair of common use infrastructure (e.g., roads, grounds, surfaced areas, structures, real property and installed equipment).  It may also include construction services for common benefit areas, but most importantly, energy consumption and reduction efforts. 

Additionally, the Division provides assistance in operational support for installation national/natural disaster preparedness programs and related services, equipment, and facility support for emergencies and wartime operations.  Products or services typically cover a full suite of technical services ranging from Master Planning studies, Planning Charrettes, 1391 Preparation, NEPA documentation, Engineering Assessments, Economic Analyses, Contract Administration, Real Estate appraisals, land disposal, easements and right of way.
