Enhanced Use Leasing
We were on the ground floor of the first Enhanced Use Lease in the Air Force. Our customer, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) was able to receive a new facility without using increasing scarce MILCON funding. During these lean funding times, EUL opportunities may be the answer for some of our customers and UTC has the personnel and experience to make it happen.
