Estimated value of procurement is an important initial step in a public procurement procedure, a step which ensures that the contracting authority will be able to allocate the funds necessary to conclude the public procurement contract. Recently, it has become more and more difficult to correctly estimate the value of works procurement. The COVID-19 pandemic, Russian aggression in the Ukraine and the subsequent inflation have substantially raised the prices of construction materials and labour. This has cumulatively and significantly increased the prices of construction and the value of construction public procurement procedures.

Keywords: estimated value of procurement, works public procurement, inflation
