Project Overview

The 300,000 SF Social Security Administration National Support Center was constructed for the GSA to replace its original 30-year old facility. As a design-assist partner, The Shockey Precast Group managed the project’s remaining design-assist process and provided architecturally featured, insulated wall panels. The decision to use precast resulted in a structure that is cost effective, offers an excellent weather barrier, and reflects the GSA’s aesthetic vision for the facility.

The Social Security Administration National Support Center is a DBIA 2015 National Design-Build Project/Team award winner in the Federal, County, State Municipal category.

"Metromont was an excellent partner and worked seamlessly, closely to collaborate almost as an extension of our design team. It’s incredible how quickly it all came together.”

"The precast concrete design was able to meet the stringent performance requirements of the structure while providing an aesthetically pleasing, sustainable final product at an affordable price point."

"Metromont’s team embraced our idea and got their whole team on board. It’s one thing for sales managers to want to make architects happy, but to have the plant manager, the finishing crew foreman and engineers fully engaged is something else. Metromont was extremely cooperative – the project was a win-win for everyone.”
