Expected award price
- likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €7,500,000
- €7.5M to €7.5M
This buyer's comparable awards in this sector came in at a median of 100% of their published estimate, half of them between 100% and 100%, based on 9 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.
