Expected award price

likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €600,000
€354,000 to €600,000

Comparable awards in this country and sector came in at a median of 85% of their published estimate, half of them between 59% and 100%, based on 40 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 69 awards for Security, fire-fighting & defence equipment in Italy.

This notice
€600,000
Median award
€667,826
Middle half of past awards

The estimate sits inside the usual range.
