The People of the
Architect of the Capitol - Proudly Serving the
Nation
24 hours a day - seven days a
week - 365 days a year, the more than 2,500 people
of the Architect of the Capitol (AOC) serve the
Nation as proud stewards of some of the most iconic
buildings and grounds in the world. Across the
Capitol campus, architects, engineers and
technicians design, enhance, and maintain new and
historic structures, spaces, and building systems.
Employees in various trades such as electricians,
plumbers, masons, and carpenters maintain the
facilities and infrastructure in optimal condition.
Gardeners and grounds keepers create colorful
displays and care for hundreds of acres of lawns and
plantings. All of these efforts are directed at
making the work of the Congress, the Supreme Court,
and Library of Congress - and the experience of the
millions of visitors annually - as smooth,
efficient, and enjoyable as possible.
Agency
operations are guided and assisted by managerial and
professional staff that perform planning, oversight,
and support functions. Our work requires the
expertise of specialists in a wide range of
disciplines, including strategic planning,
budgeting,information technology, safety, and art
and architectural history. |
