Description

Since re-opening in 2002, the U.S. embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, has experienced a dramatic increase in staffing, followed by a gradual drawdown. The State Department (State) has invested or plans to invest a total of $2.17 billion in U.S. facilities to address current and projected space needs. State awarded two contracts in 2009 and 2010 to construct additional on-compound housing and office facilities. State later partially terminated one contract, and expanded the construction requirements of the second, affecting cost and schedule. This report examines (1) the extent to which construction cost and schedule have changed and why; (2) Stateäó»s use of temporary facilities on-compound; and (3) Stateäó»s planning for projected embassy facility needs. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
