Hoar Construction has started work on the Centralized Operational Reliability and Efficiency facility on the campus of Texas A&M University-Central Texas in Killeen. The $47.5 million project is part of the school’s $4.8 billion capital improvement plan and will consolidate central utility facilities and the campus police station.

The project consolidates three existing facilities into one limestone-cladding building. The single-story building will house several departments, including a complete University Police Department, an Emergency Operations Center, and an integrated campus Central Utility Plant. Totaling 43,974 square feet, construction is expected to be completed in Summer 2026. 

Hoar will oversee the installation of mechanical, electrical and plumbing lines and chilled water lines, connecting the new building to the three existing structures. Additional project partners include PBK as the architect, Shah Smith & Associates as the MEP engineer and Gessner Engineering as the civil engineer.
