Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €950,000
€950,000 to €950,000

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 100% of their published estimate, half of them between 100% and 100%, based on 384 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 1,231 awards for Architecture & engineering services in Ireland.

This notice
€950,000
Median award
€124,740
Middle half of past awards
€49,292 to €300,000

The estimate is larger than three in four past awards.

Award values as published by the official sources. Use them as a guide, not a rule: scope, lots and duration differ between contracts.
