Project Description
As part of the first construction phase of the Deutz campus of the Technical University of Cologne, BLB NRW Cologne organized tendering competitions for "Building A" and the "Lecture Centre". In each of these two-phase competitions, 7 participants in the "Building A" procedure and 8 participants in the "Lecture Hall Center" procedure were selected for the 2nd phase.

Lecture Centre
PROPROJEKT was commissioned to support BLB NRW Cologne with the cost control of the submitted competition designs and to advise in the respective jury meetings. The cost control included in particular the plausibility check of the cost assumptions submitted in the competition process with regard to cost groups 300 and 400 and according to DIN 276. The submitted work was individually assessed by comparing the construction costs depending on the respective design and identifying design-dependent cost drivers or cost outliers.
