In Portugal, Município de Cascais purchases services for municipal installations, school equipment and health centres under its management. Its latest cleaning notice spans these operating sites, placing routine facilities work alongside education and healthcare provision in the buyer’s procurement activity. The notice’s scale makes the distinction between an advertised amount and a supplier’s eventual award especially important.
KEY NUMBERS
Published on 2026-09-18, the notice covers cleaning services for municipal installations, school equipment and health centres under Município de Cascais. Its advertised value is 16680312 EUR, while the closing date has not been published. The buyer issued 247 other notices in 180d, providing the comparison used here without turning the cleaning notice into an awarded contract.
The 596 multiple compares the cleaning notice with the buyer’s median notice of 27990 EUR. A median comparison shows how far this advertised amount sits from the buyer’s usual notice level; it does not predict the winning supplier’s payment or establish that the notice will be awarded at its advertised value. Framework ceilings are excluded from these figures.
The comparison places the cleaning notice well above Cascais’s own median, but it is not the buyer’s largest listed notice: the school meals notice is advertised at 25844369 EUR. The chart therefore points to a buyer-specific outlier rather than a ranking claim. For bidders, that distinction separates an unusually large notice against the buyer’s normal activity from the question of which contract has the highest advertised value.

Cascais’s cleaning notice is unusual against its own median, not the buyer’s largest advertised contract.
WHY IT MATTERS
Suppliers reading public notices need to separate advertised value from awarded value and compare a large notice with the buyer’s own purchasing pattern. Here, 16680312 EUR is 596 times Município de Cascais’s median notice of 27990 EUR, while the closing date remains unpublished. That combination supports careful scope and timetable checks rather than assumptions about contract revenue.
