The total construction contract sum, following a competitive tendering process, for the IDA advance technology (manufacturing) buildings are as follows:

Waterford €3.53M

Athlone €3.59M

This sum excludes all planning, design and project management services, Local Authority planning and development contributions, DAC (Disability Access Cert’s,) & Fire Certification, the provision of utilities (power, gas, water and waste-water) and US LEED Certification on each building.

IDA has not incurred any capital expenditure in respect to the construction of the Letterkenny office as its delivery is via a private developer.

In respect to future plans, the IDA is currently in the process of finalising its strategy 2015- 2020 with a strong focus on regional economic development which will inform the delivery of future property solutions.
