After years of planning, a course for the construction of a $30 million renovation to the Army’s only primary standards laboratory facility is moving forward at Redstone Arsenal.
The customer is USATA – which stands for the Test, Measurement and Diagnostics Equipment Activity – and its 120 employees. Building 5435 has been home to the Army Primary Standards Laboratory since 1963. It is used for the calibration and repair of test, measurement and diagnostic equipment used in support of the Army’s arsenal of vehicles, weapons and equipment.
