The mission of the Washington Construction and Facilities Management Office (CFMO) is to provide for the construction, repairs and maintenance for all Washington Army National Guard (WAARNG) facilities and installations. The CFMO is responsible for the planning, design and construction of all major construction projects to support the 25 year strategic plan. In addition, CFMO acquires real property for use by WAARNG elements through the purchase of land and buildings, as well as long-term lease acquisitions. Through the construction and real property programs, CFMO delivers high quality buildings, additions, large scale renovations and structural enhancements. CFMO also manages facility sustainability, physical security and historic preservation of WAARNG facilities. The CFMO director is the principal advisor to the Adjutant General of Washington regarding all real property, facilities, construction and environmental management programs. Design and Construction Branch (Andi Bodnariuk) The Design and Construction Branch’s mission is to support the WAARNG’s operational readiness through designing, engineering and managing projects for new military construction (MILCON) as well as sustainment, restoration, modernization and maintenance projects of all facilities within the WAARNG inventory.
Planning and Programing Branch (Adriana Bunker) The Planning & Programming Branch’s mission is to support the WAARNG’s operational readiness by developing short and long-term planning for land acquisition, distribution of facilities-related resources, military construction, real property support, units stationing versus space requirements and organizational development necessary to accomplish facilities engineering and management program functions in support of programs essential to WAARNG daily operations, training and readiness missions.
Federal and State Resource Management (Eric Shriner & Ruth Schutter) Federal: The Federal Resource Management Branch manages a total budget between $12 and $20 million annually. It manages and provides oversight for all aspects of the Master Cooperative Agreement for Appendix 1 and conducts detailed budgeting actions and projections based on project planning and programming inputs. It also provides budget oversight for all construction (sustainment, restoration and modernization) and facility maintenance projects. In addition, it manages the budget for MILCON projects that can vary from $5 to $40 million and Unspecified Minor Military Construction projects that vary between $1 to $6 million. State: This branch provides accurate budget management for two Master Cooperative Agreement Appendices, Appendix 1 and Appendix 2. This includes complex budget development that involves multiple funding sources and multiple budget years, from federal and state systems, ensuring execution is in line with strategic goals of the department. It also provides management of CFMO contracts and purchasing, analyzes spending history and reports on the CFMO budget status while ensuring compliance with policies, audit requirements and regulatory standards. Facilities and Business Operations Branch (Joseph Giaccio) The Facilities and Business Operations Branch supports current and future operations of the WAARNG CFMO, across the state, with reliable and accurate facilities and business operations. Major activities include: real property accountability and acquisition, rental/lease program, recruiting storefront management, comprehensive energy, recycling management and real property asset evaluation to ensure WAARNG facilities meet current and future standards and training needs.
State Maintenance and Support Services Branch (Vacant) The State Maintenance and Support Services (SMSS) Branch supports current and future operations of the WAARNG by providing immediate response to critical failures of our facilities and equipment across the entire state. The Branch provides routine work order support for facilities and equipment that need repair, maintenance or replacement. The Branch has a varied staff of skilled trades, grounds crew and custodial employees that support more than 100 facilities statewide. It’s goal is to “Preserve the Past, Maintain the Present, Ensure the Future.” Environmental Branch (Susan Vezeau) The CFMO Environmental Branch supports the mission of the WAARNG by protecting and enhancing the environment through education training, leadership and environmental stewardship. This is done through three main pillars: conservation, pollution prevention and environmental compliance to comply with both federal and state environmental statutes.
