Bergmann Awarded 3-Year New York OGS Architecture Contract National architecture, engineering and planning firm Bergmann has been awarded a three-year contract to provide architectural services to the New York State Office of General Services (OGS) Design & Construction Group. The maximum value of this contract is $3 million for projects across New York state. Bergmann has been providing architectural services to OGS for more than 20 years. In the past, Bergmann completed multiple projects as part of an engineering and architecture statewide contract. For example, Bergmann provided design services for the roof replacement and exterior stair rehabilitation at the historic Empire State Plaza. One of the more significant recent Bergmann/OGS projects was the OGS Capital Milestones Child Care Center, where Bergmann provided architectural and structural engineering services, in partnership with Spring Line Design, for renovations to the 28,000 sq. ft. building. This project included a number of featured spaces such as classrooms for infants through pre-K, a multipurpose room and staff support spaces.

Bergmann will support the OGS projects from five offices located in cities across New York—Albany, Buffalo, Horseheads, Rochester and Syracuse.
