WHO WE ARE

We are a Joint Venture team of Jacobs and HDR Engineering (J-HDR JV) who, under issued task order, have been engaged to conduct third-party inspections of PPV unaccompanied housing (UH) units at Naval Station Norfolk and Naval Base San Diego.

The goals of this project are two-fold:

i) Ensure that the Navy is fully compliant with Public Law (PLAW) No. 116-92, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2020, SEC. 3051.

ii) Collect data on Life/Health/Safety (LHS) deficiencies and the condition of a range of components spanning several building systems, with an eye toward producing an overall score for each unit that encompasses both metrics.

The Navy has engaged the J-HDR JV to conduct a thorough inspection and assessment of the structural integrity and habitability of each unit. The inspections and assessments will be based on applicable standards in the InterNACHI’s Standards of Practice and state regulations for home inspections. The Housing inspections will be performed by two-person teams of qualified home inspectors, at least one of which will possess the appropriate credentials as defined by the respective state (if regulated) in which the work will be performed.
