NCPA Disaster Recovery Center
The Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) converted an existing Sacramento County office building into its new and upgraded Disaster Recovery Center (DRC). The new and upgraded DRC will be used by NCPA to support the reliable scheduling and dispatch of its members’ electric load and power generation to serve the electric demand of communities located throughout Northern and Central California. The project included updated interior areas, improved exterior features, re-ran major power and data, and added a secure back-up generator enclosure. The project was highly collaborative, using extensive self-perform trades, supporting design adjustments and addressing existing-building challenges, all resulting in a dependable new DRC for NCPA and its members.
DPR’s self-perform work groups played a major role as well. Because the project required a substantial percentage of self-performed work, nearly every SPW trade contributed to the completion of the project–including concrete, drywall, ceilings, frames and hardware, Division 10–with EIG handling a large share of the electric scope.
Even as a smaller renovation project, the new NCPA DRC reflects a thoughtful, client-focused approach. The result is a reliable, modernized space that strengthens NCPA’s ability to serve its members and maintain continuity of operations for years to come.
