Mirbud S.A. Loses Key Road Construction Tender to Competitor
On August 4, 2026, the results of a major road construction tender were announced, revealing that Mirbud S.A. was unsuccessful in securing the contract. The tender, valued at PLN 450 million, was awarded to Budimex S.A., which submitted the lowest bid of PLN 430 million. Mirbud S.A.’s offer, amounting to PLN 445 million, was higher than the winning bid, leading to its exclusion from the contract.
This tender was part of a significant infrastructure project overseen by the General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways (GDDKiA), a key client for Mirbud S.A. The loss of this contract highlights the competitive pressures in the public procurement market, where pricing remains a decisive factor.
Despite Mirbud’s strong track record in road construction, the outcome underscores the challenges posed by rising material costs and fierce competition from established players like Budimex S.A. and other international firms.
