The state institution “National Military Memorial Cemetery” of the Ministry for Veterans Affairs 27 October published information on prices for material resources for additional works on 1-2 launch complexes of the first phase of construction of the National Military Memorial Cemetery near Kyiv. This is reported in the ProZorro system.
“Nashi Hroshi” 19 October reported that the consortium “Building UA” was ordered additional works on 1-2 launch complexes of the first phase of construction of the National Military Memorial Cemetery in the Hatne territorial community of Fastiv district, Kyiv region for 879,02 million UAH, hiding information about prices for material resources. However, already a week later, on 27 October the procuring entity published it as an addendum dated 23 October.
The contract price is dynamic, meaning materials can actually be paid for at prices lower than the estimate prices. At the same time it does not include funds to cover risks and inflation.
The largest sum goes to various Ukrainian products made of natural gray volcanic-origin stone (likely granite) – 105,84 million UAH (here and below prices and amounts include VAT but exclude delivery). In particular, an unfinished product with modular dimensions and thickness of 80 mm costs 4 574 UAH/sq. m ($102), while a product with decorative surface treatment cleaned with high-pressure water of the face surface with modular dimensions and thickness of 80 mm – 5 074 UAH/sq. m ($113). In the original contract with “Building UA” from August 2024 there were similar items of that thickness with and without treatment priced the same – 3 740 UAH/sq. m ($91). So the currency price has now been raised by 11-19%. Recall that, according to an appendix to the expert report, the project adjustments included “bringing the estimated cost of the facility to the current price level.”
It is difficult to compare prices with the market because the thickness is nonstandard, and the dimensions and the deposit are unknown.
Over the same period since August 2024 the average monitored price of crushed stone fraction 40-70 mm, which is also granite, across Ukraine rose from 615 UAH/cu. m to 1 421 UAH/cu. m, i.e., doubled.
A radial product 1000x300x150 mm of the same stone was priced at 7 310 UAH/m, and a sphere (ball) with a diameter of 600 mm – 48 000 UAH/pc. The original contract did not include similar items.
A significant amount is also allocated for double-glazed units and stained glass, but they are nonstandard (for example, radial), prefabricated and custom-made, and delivery also has dashes.
Group II fill soil for backfilling totaling 17,97 million UAH is priced at 760 UAH/cu. m, and in the delivery column there is a dash opposite it, so the price may potentially include delivery. In July, the municipal enterprise Kyivbudrekonstruktsia accounted for quarry soil in the reconstruction of the Bortnychi aeration station at 372 UAH/t, and its delivery for 81 km at 1 145 UAH/t. According to “Nashi Hroshi,” verifying the origin of the soil, the transport distance, and thus the validity of the payment can only be done by tracking the movements of trucks. Similarly, only by checking all the trucks can one find out how many tons of soil they will actually carry.
Dense coarse-grained asphalt concrete type A grade 1 was accounted at 8 133 UAH/t, and fine-grained at 8 481 UAH/t. PrJSC “Asphalt Concrete Plant ‘AB Stolychniy’” in its June price list offers them at 8 568 UAH/t and 8 943 UAH/t, which is a bit more expensive. According to September monitoring by SE “NIRI,” in the Kyiv region the average price of dense coarse-grained asphalt concrete grade 1 is 8 041 UAH/t, and fine-grained – 8 650 UAH/t.
Rebar class A500C diameter 10 mm (unit) costs 42 360 UAH/t, which corresponds to the market or is even lower. “Bulat Metal” sells it at 40 575 UAH/t, and “Iron World” at 49 856 UAH/t.
Sealing compound for filling joints PDR-073 Plus gray costs 122 UAH/kg. This specific Plus gray is only available at the store “Pershiy Dim” for 138 UAH/kg, but it is not in stock.
Waterproofing membrane Sikaplan 1100-20 HL is accounted at 2 884 UAH/sq. m. This corresponds to its price in the online store “Karsal,” which calls itself an official Sika dealer in Ukraine.
Crushed stone–sand mix C7 costs 1 673 UAH/cu. m, while the monitored price is 1 724 UAH/cu. m.
Crushed stone 20-40 mm M1000 and above costs 1 487 UAH/cu. m, which equals the monitored price.
Natural ordinary sand costs 1 167 UAH/cu. m, while the monitored price is 980 UAH/cu. m.
Columnar maples “Columnare” 700-850 cm were included at 60 240 UAH/pc. These are mature large-sized trees with heights of 7-8,5 m. It was not possible to find prices for this variety at that height in open sources.
Silicone sealant Ceresit Silicoflexx CS 25 light gray 280 ml was accounted at 1 443 UAH/l, while “Epicenter” sells it at 515 UAH/pc, which recalculated is more expensive – at 1 839 UAH/l.
Flexible copper power cable KGnV 3x4 costs 370 UAH/m. “Ukrprovid” in its October price list offers it at half the price – 169 UAH/m. World copper prices are rising.
The SE “National Military Memorial Cemetery” is headed by Yaroslav Pronyutkin, and the authorized procurement officer is Ivan Bykhovchenko. The Ministry for Veterans Affairs has been headed since July 2026 by Vitaliy Kim, the former head of Mykolaiv Regional State Administration.
