Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €162,000
€142,560 to €162,000

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 99% of their published estimate, half of them between 88% and 100%, based on 284 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 2,000 awards for Laboratory & precision equipment in Spain.

This notice
€162,000
Median award
€4,224

The estimate is larger than three in four past awards.

Based on 2,625 awards with a named winner over the last 3 years. Counted by award, not by value, because lot and framework amounts are not comparable. Concentrated means the three most frequent winners took 65% or more of the awards; many suppliers, under 35% with at least ten different winners.
