New Senate Office Building: Escalated Costs and Delayed Completion
The Senate Office Building Commission asked GAO to review the costs of the Hart Office Building and the factors in the delay and to determine whether the architect's timetable and fast-track construction proposal were realistic and properly carried out, associate architect's delay resulted in increased fees to him, and the architect's procedures were standard ones that adequately protected the interests of the taxpayers. The architect estimates the cost of designing and constructing the Hart Building and related construction at $122,647,000. GAO estimates that constructing the project as presently designed will cost much more than that. Several factors are contributing to the cost overruns and time delays.
