Summary

Machine-generated summary

This open procedure covers the supply of compressed natural gas (methane) for buses belonging to company depots in Abruzzo. Refuelling is carried out at the pump using a fuel card system. The service lasts one year and is divided into three lots that can be awarded separately: lot 1 covers the Pescara and Chieti area, lot 2 covers Avezzano and lot 3 covers Sulmona. Bidders may compete for one or more lots. The purchasing entity operates public transport services from these three depots and requires a continuous supply of methane fuel for its bus fleet throughout the contract period.

Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €1,200,000
€588,000 to €996,000

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 63% of their published estimate, half of them between 49% and 83%, based on 91 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 155 awards for Chemicals in Italy.

As the official award notices state them, over the last 3 years. Tenders per lot count open and restricted procedures only: in a negotiated procedure or a direct award a single tender is the procedure itself. The country is the one the notice gives for the winner.

One dot per award, on the day it was signed, sized by its value. A ring is an award with no published value.
