Funding Requirements for U.S. Military Hospitals |
|
Military planners needed defensible estimates of M&R funding required for three building types-research hospital, community hospital, and medical clinic-common to domestic U.S. military facilities. The Whitestone MARS system was used to provide detailed funding benchmarks for the three building models, enabling planners to better validate funding requests, to distribute funds according to specific local needs, and to develop a long-term funding plan that anticipates rather than reacts to oscillating M&R requirements over time. Average funding requirements were found to range from $2.56 to $3.11 per gross square foot for the three building types, located in the Washington DC area. Deployment of MARS included over 60 sites nationwide. |
