The Texas Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) entered into collaboration in support of specific Congressional legislation entitled "Base Efficiency Project" at Brooks AFB, TX later renamed Brooks City-Base. TEES along with the US Air Force, City of San Antonio, and Brooks Development Authority became major transitional partners in developing a model designed to reduce costs and enhance mission effectiveness for the military while spurring economic development for the local community.

The goal was to integrate and focus the BDA's primary long-term success drivers: economic development, technology transfer, and new compatible tenants. TEES helped define the scope of the technology pursuits that encompassed the Park's mission and objectives while complementing other research and applied technology entities in San Antonio. Additionally, TEES systematically facilitated inclusion of technology laboratories that focused on relevant technology areas and the necessary infrastructure development to help alliance partners to create transferable technologies, incubate commercially viable products and services, and deliver technology products and services.
