Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €220,000
€202,400 to €220,000

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 100% of their published estimate, half of them between 92% and 100%, based on 156 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 308 awards for Laboratory & precision equipment in Ireland.

This notice
€220,000
Median award
€104,750
Middle half of past awards
€60,950 to €216,071

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.
