Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children’s Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board
Mr. John Pollock:
Our own consultants carried out benchmarking reports previously, but we wanted to get an independent benchmarking report done. AECOM was appointed to do that. As we were discussing earlier this morning, the benchmarking study concluded that based on the hospitals AECOM examined around the world the average construction cost was €5,951 per sq. m. One of the projects cost €8,000 per sq. m, and one was €7,000 per sq. m. Our benchmarking cost for our project is €6,500 per sq. m.
