Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €4,000,000
€4.0M to €4.0M

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 314 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 947 awards for Business services in Ireland.

This notice
€4.0M
Median award
€150,000
Middle half of past awards
€59,717 to €400,000

The estimate is larger than three in four past awards.
