Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €2,680,000
€2.5M to €2.7M

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 100% of their published estimate, half of them between 92% and 102%, based on 66 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.

What this market pays

The buyer has too few awards of its own in this sector, so this is the range of the last 592 awards for Software & IT systems in Germany.

This notice
€2.7M
Median award
€410,166
Middle half of past awards

The estimate is larger than three in four past awards.

One dot per award, on the day it was signed, sized by its value. A ring is an award with no published value.
