Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €7,400
€2,590 to €6,586

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 52% of their published estimate, half of them between 35% and 89%, based on 1,193 awards of the last 3 years.

Each award is compared with the estimate of the same lots, framework agreements excluded. A published estimate may include options and renewals, so an award under it is not always a discount.
