If you are preparing a bid for an ADIF tender, request the official ADIF 2021 Base de Precios directly via their contracting platform. For internal studies or academic work, many engineering schools provide sanitized extracts. Always verify that you have the complete document with all errata up to the tender’s deadline.
Los precios contenidos en esta base se considerarán precios base de referencia. Para su aplicación efectiva en contratos adjudicados en 2021 o posteriores, se aplicarán los coeficientes de revisión de precios establecidos en la normativa de contratos del sector público (Real Decreto-ley 3/2020, de medidas urgentes, y sucesivas actualizaciones).
ADIF publicará trimestralmente los índices de precios de materiales, energía y mano de obra que permiten ajustar los valores de esta base a las condiciones económicas vigentes.
Use the Base de Precios del Ministerio de Transportes (2021) – similar but less railway-specific – and apply a correction factor (typically 1.05–1.15 for railway complexity). However, ADIF may reject this in official tenders. base de base de precios adif 2021
The items are generally categorized by chapters:
It is crucial to note that the ADIF Price Base differs from general civil engineering bases (like those used for roads or buildings):
The 2021 price base is organized into chapters by railway subsystem: If you are preparing a bid for an

Note: ADIF also uses a Public Price Framework (Marco de Precios) for certain standard contracts, which may differ slightly from the full Base de Precios.
Antes de desglosar el documento, definamos el concepto. La Base de Base de Precios (BBPP) de ADIF es un documento técnico-económico que establece los precios unitarios de referencia para cada una de las operaciones, materiales y unidades de obra que pueden ejecutarse dentro de la red ferroviaria de titularidad de ADIF.
La versión de 2021 sustituye a ediciones anteriores y se crea con los siguientes objetivos:
