It is my pleasure to provide a letter of recommendation for Daniel Martinez.  I was privileged to work with Mr. Martinez during his tenure as the project architect for the renovation of Bldg. 210, Hangar 1 at Naval Air Station Lemoore, Lemoore, California. The scope of this project included mission critical life safety upgrades to the seismic system of the building, hazardous material abatement, the installation of an Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) system and the complete interior design/renovation of  a 121,244 square foot hangar which houses a U.S. Navy FA-18 training squadron. Throughout the project, Mr. Martinez led the design team to ensure that the intent of the project was met while also providing the tenant of the hangar with a space that would exceed their functional requirements. During the initial design phase of this $20 million design/build project, Mr. Martinez successfully conducted several design charrettes and design review meetings to guarantee all aspects of the design criteria were met.  Once the design was approved and accepted by the customer, Mr. Martinez closely monitored the progress of the project by visiting the site and speaking with the onsite project manager, customer, and other government representatives.  In the event that any discrepancy or conflict within the design was mentioned, Mr. Martinez and his team worked to expeditiously resolve these issues and to enhance the design to better meet the requirements of the customer. As the local Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) project engineer assigned to represent the government on this project, I deem Mr. Martinez to be very professional and competent in his work, many times willing to go the extra mile to ensure the needs of the clients were satisfied.  The successful completion of this project, evident by the satisfaction of the government and the end user, is a testament to the aptitude and ability of Mr. Martinez and his associated design team.
