LMG CONSTRUCTION RATED “OUTSTANDING” BY WHITEMAN AFB

The Kansas City-based, WBE-certified contractor receives the highest possible rating for its work on the airfield pavements at Whiteman Air Force Base in Knob Noster, Missouri

(Kansas City, Missouri) Jan. 28, 2013 - LMG Construction Services, a Kansas City-based company founded by Lisa M. Garney in 2007, is proud to have received a CCASS rating of outstanding from the contracting officers for the work it performed on the airfield at Whiteman Air Force Base in Knob Noster, Missouri.

LMG was awarded a 5-year $41.4M Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for the construction of pavement repairs at Whiteman AFB in August 2011. LMG provided the estimating, scheduling, management and field construction services necessary to repair and construct aprons, inlets, ramps, taxiways and runway on the base. Work included repair and maintenance of airfield pavements and drainage structures.

Whiteman AFB is a joint-service base, with Air Force, Army, and Navy units, located 70 miles east-southeast of Kansas City, Missouri. The host unit at Whiteman is the 509th Bomb Wing (509 BW) assigned to the Eighth Air Force of the Air Force Global Strike Command. The 509 BW operates the B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, designed to be employed to strike high-value targets that are either out of conventional aircraft range or considered to be too heavily defended for conventional aircraft to strike without a high risk of loss. Whiteman AFB is the only permanent base for the stealth bomber. Other aircraft assigned to Whiteman and utilizing its runways include the A-10 Thunderbolt II ground-attack fighter, the T-38 Talon jet trainer, and the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter. The outstanding rating marks the latest milestone in Garney’s multifaceted career. In 2012 LMG Construction Services was honored by the Missouri Legislature as an outstanding small business. In addition, LMG this year received the Aspiration Award for Outstanding WBE Contractor in Construction from the city of Kansas City, Missouri.
