Infrastructure & Capital Projects

Associate Laboratory Directorate for Infrastructure and Capital Projects (ALDICP)

Planning and executing Capital Projects

ALDICP plans and executes capital projects at Los Alamos National Laboratory with a focus on the plutonium pit production facilities for U.S. nuclear weapons. Working on more than 150 infrastructure projects across the Laboratory, ALDICP is modernizing our capabilities supporting the nuclear weapons, global security, science, and applied energy programs.

  • New Facilities

    Projects include new office buildings, light industrial-use facilities, and small laboratories. These can be modular constructed buildings fabricated offsite, stick build, or a combination. Scope includes design, foundation work, building construction, electrical, water and gas utilities and tie-ins, HVAC, telecommunications, access controls, fire protection/alarm and security.

    • Line-Item Projects

      Large line-item projects provide new mission enabling facilities. Projects include offices, training facilities, fabrication shops, and experimental facilities. Scope includes design and construction of the facility including foundation work, fabrication of the structure, and design/installation of the facility subsystems (HVAC, electrical, telecommunications, safety systems, access control, and other utilities).

      • D&D, Renovations

        Projects that upgrade and outfit portions of existing buildings may involve characterizing existing facilities for contamination and waste streams, decontamination and demolition, remediation of equipment and materials, and refurbishment of the vacant space including HVAC, electrical power, lighting, flooring, partitioning and equipment installation to meet facility requirements and resolve any code compliance issues.

        • Utility Upgrades

          Projects to replace existing utility systems include design and construction. Asbestos and beryllium contamination is expected, and remediation would be included in the project scope. Waste disposal including the equipment and site clean-up is included in the project scope.
