Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €8,000,000
€8.0M to €8.0M

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 69 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 133 awards for Health & social work in Ireland.
