Benchmark

What has this kind of work actually been awarded at?

One page, four ways in. Start from the bid figure you already have, from a sector, from a building type and a floor area, or from a written brief — every one of them is answered from the same evidence: the European public construction award notices Coira holds. Where the comparables are too few or too scattered to support a figure, this page says so instead of producing one.

Sense-check a figure against like-for-like awards before it leaves the business.

Build a commercial bid review pack from like for like Irish awards, an independent €/m² check, your margin thresholds and five named comparables. Export the decision to PDF or Excel.

A “comparable” here is a similar public sector award on record, used to check your figure. It is not a guarantee your bid is right.

Benchmarked against Irish public awards, adjusted for inflation to today’s prices. County narrowing is available below.

01

Project

Name the opportunity and describe enough scope for Coira to classify it.

02

Commercial position

Add the net cost and margin thresholds to turn the market benchmark into a submit / hold decision.

03

Tender basis

Record the inclusions and exclusions that make the price defensible later.

We use your inputs to generate this pack. We do not save them to your account unless you choose "Save this" on the result below. Only enter information you are authorised to use. See our privacy notice and professional disclaimer.

How each figure is derived, and what is and is not in the population, is set out in full on the methodology page. Coira Adjudicate — the tender-return adjudication work that reads these same awards — is not a page you can open here; it starts as a conversation.
