The Coast Guard still inspects its buildings one at a time
What happened
The US Coast Guard is paying a company to inspect one of its buildings in Charleston, South Carolina. This means the building will get a check-up, but nothing about how the Coast Guard manages its facilities has changed.
Why it matters
The US Coast Guard needs to know if its Rice Mill Building in Charleston is structurally sound. So it hired an engineering firm to check it. This is how governments keep their buildings from falling down, one inspection at a time.
The signal
Watch for any future contracts that suggest the Coast Guard is inspecting its buildings differently, or at a larger scale.
