CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATIONS Key Accomplishments in FY 2019
In addition to the support of multiple preservation and construction projects, business operations and safety initiatives (discussed in the MD&A), the jurisdiction:
Conducted Planning Workshops: The AOC held several workshops to discuss the risks, priorities and requirements for upcoming construction projects. Meetings addressed Line Item Construction Programs, Capital Improvement Plans and the Master Plan Task Force.
Joined Financial Innovation Group: The AOC joined the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Financial Innovation and Transformation Momentum Working Group to glean and share best practices with other federal agencies that use the Momentum® Financial Management System.
Improved Visitor Amenities: To aid visitors, the jurisdiction installed a public Wi-Fi system and mounted new digital signage to publicize CVC program, tour and amenity information. For online guests, the Education and Exhibits Division upgraded the CVC website with additional program content.
Offered New Early Childhood Programs: In June 2019, the CVC staff partnered with the Capitol Building jurisdiction and the Smithsonian Institution’s Early Enrichment Center to offer a special tour and hands- on activities for early-childhood visitors. This program helped the CVC refine its family audience outreach.
Continued Partnership on Constitution Program: The jurisdiction continued to work closely with the U.S. Capitol Historical Society, National Archives and Record Administration, White House and Supreme Court on the We the People Constitution Program, which educates Washington, D.C., public and public charter school students about their city and government.
What’s Next? FY 2020 Priorities What’s Next? FY 2020 Priorities
Continue Exhibition Hall Renovation: The redesign and renovation of the CVC’s 16,000 square foot exhibition space will occur throughout FY 2020. The redesign shall include changes to interpretive approach, content, design, lighting, programming and communications. Exhibition Hall is expected to reopen in 2021.
Develop Online Store: Following the completion of an independent feasibility study, the CVC began developing an e-commerce site to support online sales. Once developed, an e-commerce manager and inventory technician are needed to manage the online store in FY 2020.
Implement New Management Systems: The agency will implement a new project management information system, e-Builder, to more effectively track, manage and resource multiple major construction projects. At the same time, the AOC is working with the U.S. Department of Treasury to implement their Budget Formulation and Execution Manager application to standardize and improve its budget formulation processes.
Enhance Central Services Capabilities: To coincide with the agency’s expanding footprint, the AOC will request to add in-house resources to increase campuswide project design and development, construction oversight and project management requirements. Personnel are required to reduce contract award time and improve information technology service delivery.
Documented the Library of Congress Murals: The AOC’s curator added 330 records in the Museum System Database to document the rich collection of murals in the Thomas Jefferson Building. The records include information about each mural, its condition and location.
