Role of the Foundation

The Ohmatdyt – Healthy Childhood Foundation joined the hospital’s recovery as a financial partner. The Foundation funds the capital renovation of the new medical and diagnostic building through contracts awarded via the Prozorro system.

Project Financing

The project has been financing in stages, through advance payments and tranches, with financial and technical control at every stage.

To date, the Foundation has made seven advance payments.

After the fifth payment, the hospital warned of a possible pause in the works. According to the hospital, internal organizational processes could temporarily affect the construction pace.

To keep the renovation moving and avoid a pause in the works, the Foundation increased the advance payment from 30% to 40%, in line with the contract terms. We have now completed this final 40% advance payment, fully meeting its financial commitments.

Key Financing Stages:

• First tranche for restoration works – UAH 15 million

• Second advance payment – UAH 39,6 million

• Third financing tranche – UAH 10.5 million

• Fourth advance tranche – UAH 16.4 million

• Fifth advance payment – UAH 6,1 million

• Sixth advance payment – UAH 17,5 million (increase of the advance amount)

• Seventh advance payment – UAH 12 million

As of today, the Foundation has fulfilled its financial obligations within the project.

Other Project Participants and Their Roles

Project Management Services (on behalf of the hospital)

The international engineering company Eptisa acts as the client’s representative in this project. It represents the hospital’s interests and coordinates all organizational processes throughout implementation.

Eptisa’s work on this project is funded by the World Bank. The company ensures that construction complies with approved design documentation and applicable building regulations.

Project Contractor

The hospital selected the contractor through an open procurement procedure in the Prozorro system.

The general contractor is RIOLA-MODUL LTD, a Ukrainian construction company responsible for carrying out the construction works in line with approved designs, technical solutions, and contract terms.

Technical Supervision

Technical supervision of the works is carried out by the engineering company AKADEM BUD. The company specializes in capital construction project supervision and monitors works at all stages — from planning to commissioning.

Author’s Supervision

The engineering company ARKON provides the author’s supervision, ensuring that the works follow the approved design solutions and original architectural concept.

About the Project

On July 8, 2024, as a result of a missile strike, the buildings of Okhmatdyt National Children’s Specialized Hospital — one of the key pediatric centers in Ukraine — were damaged. That day, the hospital suffered serious losses: people were killed, and part of the departments could not operate at full capacity.

Project Status

During construction, the project required updates to the design documentation. The revised documentation was approved on November 21, 2025, based on an expert assessment. The project also faced delays in the delivery of certain construction materials.

Taking these factors into account, the parties agreed to extend the completion deadline until March 31, 2026. This decision was formalized through an additional agreement.

The hospital has since initiated another update to the design documentation, which is currently under review.

All information related to procurement, contracts, and additional agreements is publicly available in the Prozorro system.
